Strelitzia Reginae; Bird of Paradise

About the Bird of Paradise

The Strelitzia Reginae, or Bird of Paradise, comes from the sunlit plains of South Africa, where she basks in warmth and open skies. With her bold green leaves and sculptural orange-and-blue blooms, she adds tropical flair and calm energy to any bedroom—perfect for those who love drama with a side of serenity.

Popular in homes since the 20th century, this eye-catching plant earned her place in interiors thanks to her exotic looks and easygoing care. With air-purifying powers and a natural elegance, she’s both a restful accent and a health boost in one.

Today, Stella (as we lovingly call her) is a dreamy choice for your sleep space. She thrives in bright, indirect light, enjoys regular watering in growing season, and a gentle wipe-down to keep her glowing. Relaxed, radiant, and low-fuss—just how we like her.

Did you know?

While rare, Stella can bloom indoors—adding a burst of colour and life to your most peaceful room.

Why the bedroom?

This plant is perfect for the bedroom because it adds calm, elegance, and a touch of the tropics with little upkeep. Her sculptural leaves create a serene vibe, while gently freshening the air around you. Though she’s not suited for little ones or pets, she thrives in peaceful, adult spaces. Low-fuss, eye-catching, and quietly uplifting—Stella was made for this room.

Bright Indirect

She’s not too picky, but she flourishes in bright, indirect light. Harsh midday rays can scorch her leaves, so it’s best to avoid direct sun. A well-lit room with filtered light will keep her growing strong and graceful.

Moderate Watering

Stella enjoys her soil lightly moist—think warm, tropical mornings. Let the top layer dry a little between waterings, and ease up during winter rest. She’s not a fan of wet feet but thrives with a consistent, deep drink.

Medium

She’s refreshingly low-maintenance and easy to care for. Give her bright, indirect light, regular watering during growth, and space to shine, and she’ll treat you to vibrant, tropical charm. Perfect for adding flair without the fuss.

Loves Warmth

Stella prefers it warm and consistent—ideally between 18°C and 27°C. She’s sensitive to cold drafts and doesn’t appreciate sudden chills, so steer clear of breezy windows or blasting AC. A cosy, bright corner will keep her looking radiant and feeling her best all year long.
