About this plant
The South African cousin of the bird of paradise, Strelitzia nicolai forms a fan of grey-green leaves carried on long stems. It easily reaches two to three metres indoors and instantly lends scale to a tall room.
Robust, it tolerates full sun behind a glass wall as well as the bright light of a hotel lobby. In Morocco it also thrives outdoors: sheltered terraces, riad patios and poolside on the coast.
Leaves that tear slightly in the wind are part of its character and do not affect its health.
