The baby Strelitzia Nicolai is a beautiful green South African plant. Its large leaves unroll out as soon as they emerge. Unlike her sibling the Strelitzia Reginae, the Strelitzia Nicolai does not flower heavily, and does not flower at all when potted. However she makes up for this with her cheerful flamboyant stem and fresh green leaves. She will probably turn out to be one of your favourite houseplants. As this plant grows older she will start splitting her leaves, this is perfectly normal! The splits are an evolutionary adaptation of the plant that allow wind to pass through the leaves.
The baby Strelitzia Nicolai is an air-purifying plant and does not need to be in a sunny spot. Give her some organic PLNTS nutrition and water once every two weeks in the summer and she will quickly grow into a lush plant. She’s happiest in a cooler part of the house, even in winter

Beautiful plant. Grows pretty quickly, for me it needed frequent repotting as it regularly outgrew the next bigger size. After about 2 years it’s pretty tall too!
