* Expert level: I'm perfect for those new to plant parenthood. * Pet friendly: Not pet friendly- keep away from furry friends and little people. * Air purifying: I remove the nasties lurking in your room. Native to South Africa, the Bird of Paradise is a real talking point with its large, exotic looking leaves on long elegant stems. All strelitzias will, over time, develop splits in their leaves which is a clever trick the plant does to ensure that the younger leaves receive plenty of light. The Bird of Paradise is a relatively low-maintenance houseplant that offers a big impact. Paired with a textured, perfectly-fitting ceramic pot. * How to keep me happy: * Light: Enjoys bright, indirect light and can even cope with occasional direct sunlight. * Water: Likes moist soil, so water regularly.
