i have 2 bird if paradise🙌

wow, no real information given about how to grow them at all.

i am happy to have 4 of the 6 species. I have the natural yellow reginae which is much more compact than the Mandelas gold. I am from South Africa so i see them all over!

mines seem to by dying! I don't know how to help it though, when i first got it i did repot it and have given it food, only feed it once a week, currently living in LA and all the leaves are turning brown...?

If you are just going to buy silk flowers then whats the point of the plant

ik vind de strelitzia reginae een van de mooiste planten

Only helpful hit: they don't bloom in colder climate zones... That's really it.

WOW , I had to watch this video about 10 times to take in all the valuable information !!!!! Thanks

Showing on how to properly grow bird-of-paradise are quite very easy to apply. Even beginners could somehow easily grow such plants. Nice information and I would be pleased to learn more from your gardening tips.

From the video we can see the leaves are withering, I think that is common problem, and that also leads me to this video.

I spotted some transparent plastic heat insulator was used at the background, I am considering replicating that, but from other text sources, this plant also need good ventilation. Too many small decisions for amateurs like me.

This video is worthless.

So... How do we grow this plant ?

I've gotten mine to bloom in San Antonio by allowing them to get root-bound. They seem to get desperate and will send out blooms to regenerate. I occasionally hit them up with Bloom Booster. BTW: I was hoping this vid would be informative. If you want a houseplant, you buy the white bird for it's leaves.

Dame it! Is that how you teach us how to grow bird of paradise? Please try again with proper information as suggested by the previous commentator. Thanks.

Your How to guide is basicaly; 1) It comes from africa, 2) It dies in the frost 3) Buy some Fake flowers so you can pretend you grew something. Come on! Give some advice on soil/repoting/watering/feeding!

Really not a "How to..."
