Strelitzia

  Q    
I have raised a Bird of Paradise plant from seed, when should it be repotted, nd how long will it take to flower?
       
  A    

Strelitzia reginae (Bird of Paradise), raised from seed, will take several years to flower.

 

Re-pot into a slightly larger pot when the pot becomes root bound, this is best done in the spring.

 

Feed every 14 days in the spring and summer to encourage good growth.
