How to care for your Strelitzia

Water:  Keep the soil moist during Summer and water when the top 5cm of the soil feels dry. During the colder months, allow the soil to dry out a little more.

Humidity: They like humidity but would be happy with normal household humidity levels.

Temperature: They prefer the warmth, about 20 degrees C but can tolerate colder.
