Bird of Paradise, White - Strelitzia nicola (6 seeds)

Strelitzia nicolai

White Bird of Paradise

The White Bird of Paradise is a tropical marvel, admired for its bold, architectural foliage and distinctive bird-like flower form. With tall, banana-like leaves and an impressive upright habit, it brings a dramatic tropical presence to gardens, patios, and spacious indoor settings. Leaves may naturally tear in the wind, a normal characteristic of the species.

Native to South Africa, this evergreen perennial thrives in warm, bright environments and makes an excellent feature plant for entrances, mixed garden beds, subtropical landscapes, or large indoor containers.

Care Requirements

• Light: Full sun to bright, indirect light
• Water: Water deeply when soil is dry; reduce in winter
• Humidity: Moderate; tolerates drier air once established
• Considerations: Protect from frost; best grown in a large container indoors or outdoors

Seed Type: Pre-Scarified Seeds

🌿 Optional: Use Gibberellic Acid (GA₃) for Seed Germination

White Bird of Paradise seeds, even when pre-scarified, often benefit from hormonal stimulation to encourage faster and more uniform sprouting. A 500 ppm GA₃ soak for 24 hours can help activate the embryo and improve germination results, particularly during cooler months.
