Tropical Plant
RARE Strelitzia parvifolia var. juncea – Reed or Leafless Bird of Paradise
PLEASE NOTE: Once they fully mature they will just be a reed type stem with no leaf. (Seeds were pollinated in Te Puke, Bay of Plenty)
Strelitzia Juncea, also known as the Leafless Bird of Paradise, is a stunning choice for dry garden landscaping and adds a dramatic touch to tropical gardens with its striking blue, upright, rush-like foliage and spectacular flowers in both spring and autumn.
Unlike its relative, Strelitzia Reginae, Strelitzia Juncea is less prone to wind damage due to its lack of paddle leaves, which reduces wind resistance.
This plant looks fantastic when planted en masse in mid-level garden positions, reaching an eventual height of about 1.5 meters.

Water plants regularly to keep the soil evenly moist to avoid a feast or famine approach. The frequency you need to water the plant will depend upon the room temperature. In summer it could be as often as once a week in summer and fortnightly in winter. Indoor Plants need light to create their energy and survive, so if a plant isn’t getting enough light it’ll exhibit some tell-tale signs, look out for pale growth and weak flowering. If your plant shows these signs move it to somewhere that has more light.Most indoor house plants originate from sub-tropical rainforests where humidity can be as high as 100 per cent.
