Strelitzia nicolai is the giant white bird of paradise: a tall, upright plant with broad, grey-green leaves shaped like paddles, with new ones opening slowly from the centre. We deliver it in Dublin with our own drivers.
It comes from the north-east Cape and southern Natal in South Africa, where it can grow as tall as a tree and has blue and white flowers. Indoors it is grown for its large leaves, and one plant is enough for a corner of a room. It likes plenty of light and a room between 18 and 22 degrees, with water about once a week.
It comes in a plastic nursery pot, so you can choose your own outer pot from our plant pots.
