The DUCHESS of the indoor plant world in our book. Our own Bird of Paradise plant is one of our absolute favourites. The taller and bigger they get the more majestic they become. And new leaves - wow that process is a sight to behold!
This upright plant adds a rich, tropical flair to your space as its glossy, banana-shaped leaves fan out. It is relatively hardy and adapts to a wide spectrum of light conditions from direct sun to low, indirect light, but will flourish in a sunny spot.
Nursery pot size: 21cm
Height (approx): 120cm
Fancy a lovely pot to put this beauty in? Here is our collection of pots which fit 17cm to 23cm nursery pots. Also consider a bigger statement pot - pots which fit 24cm to 35cm nursery pots. Make sure you select a pot with at least an opening of 21cm.
Sending as a gift? Pimp your plant gift by adding one of our beautiful botanical greeting cards, made by us in collaboration with local artist extraordinaire, Kate Summerville.
- Light: Does well in a variety of light levels, from full sun down to medium light levels. Ideally keep it in a bright spot.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the top 50% of the soil dries out. Bottom water for 20 minutes or water in the nursery pot over a sink and allow a good 20% of the water to flow out of the drainage holes.
- Cleaning: The big leaves attract dust, so carefully wipe clean periodically to help the plant photosynthesize effectively.
- Temperature: Normal room temperature is good - does not like cold spaces or draughts.
- Pets: Toxic so keep out of reach.
Note: All our plants are unique, the plant you receive might not be identical to the one photographed but we're sure you're going to love it either way!
*Price is for plant in nursery pot only, does not include decorative pot.
