The Bird of Paradise is architectural planting at its most striking. Its bold, paddle-shaped leaves and unmistakable orange-and-blue crane-like flowers make it a designer favourite for feature beds, resort planting and container displays where a single clump can carry a whole composition.
It is a clump-forming evergreen that holds its structural good looks year-round, performing well in full sun to part shade with good soil and steady water. Both the striking foliage and the exotic flowers earn their place, indoors in bright interiors as well as out in the landscape.
Robust and long-lived once established, it delivers instant impact and a distinctly tropical, high-end character. We supply full, well-established clumps — and the larger, foliage-focused Strelitzia nicolai where scale is wanted — acclimatised and delivered wholesale across the UAE.
