Description
The Giant Bird of Paradise, also known as Strelitzia Nicolai or the “Wild Banana,” is one of the most striking indoor plants you can add to your home. Native to South Africa, this tropical beauty is loved not only for its rare white flowers but also for its dramatic, banana-like leaves in shades of deep green and soft grey. With its towering presence, it transforms any room into a lush retreat, making it a true centerpiece plant.
Caring for the Giant Bird of Paradise is simple, provided it gets what it loves most: plenty of light and regular watering. Keep the soil evenly moist (but avoid letting water sit at the bottom of the pot) and enjoy watching its foliage stretch tall and wide. During warmer months, it can be placed outdoors on a terrace or balcony to soak up the sun, but bring it back inside before the colder season, as it’s not frost hardy.
Delivered at an impressive 150–170 cm tall (including its 28 cm nursery pot), this Strelitzia Nicolai is more than just a plant — it’s a living statement piece that adds natural elegance and tropical flair to your space.
