Keeping this beautiful and peculiar bird of paradise at home greatly adds natural charm and makes your home more elegant.

Key care points for the bird of paradise:

(1). Soil: It requires loose, fertile, well-drained, humus-rich, slightly acidic sandy soil. Generally, use a potting mix made by combining 1 part coarse sand, 1 part leaf mold, 1 part peat, and 1 part garden soil. When planting, adding slow-release fertilizer can make the soil nutrient-rich, which is beneficial to the healthy growth of the plant and makes the flowers more brilliant.

(2). Water: The bird of paradise is afraid of waterlogging and tolerant of drought. So just keep the potting soil moist when watering, and avoid water accumulating in the pot. In summer and autumn, water more, once a day, keep the soil moist, and spray the leaves and surrounding area in the morning and evening to maintain a certain air humidity.

(3). Light: It should receive no less than 4 hours of sunlight every day, and be kept in a place with bright, indirect light. In summer, provide appropriate shade. In winter, it needs sufficient sunlight; insufficient light will affect growth and flower color.

(4). Fertilizing: The bird of paradise needs sufficient nutrients during the growing period. In addition to applying enough base fertilizer when planting, apply a thin liquid fertilizer once every 2 weeks. Fertilize frequently before and after flowering, following the principle of "apply frequently and lightly." During the flowering period, adding 0.5% superphosphate to the fertilizer solution can make the flower color more brilliant.
