In your previous bird of paradise video i noticed your dad has quite a few hibiscus. I have several that i overwinter inside too (living in Minnesota) so I would love any tips on health/care :D

  • @noora7773
    @noora7773 5 месяцев назад

    I love bird of paradise! One thing I don't get is the flowering time... here you said that they bloom in fall but when I went to Sicily, Italy, last May, the hotel had bird of paradises blooming in May! They were in the garden and not in pots. When I got home I immediately had to buy one from Ikea. I got the Strelitzia reginae. I have my plant under a 1500 lumens light and so far it has stayed alive here in Finland. When summer comes the plant will take a holiday on my south facing glassed balcony with her closest friends dwarf banana and croton petra. I hope the time will come that the bird of paradise makes flowers...

    • @KillThisPlant

      You can, as long as youre able to acclimatize them slowly to the new intense lighting. start in a more shaded area. work up to a few hours a day until it is full time.

  • @MarisaAndChew
    @MarisaAndChew 5 месяцев назад +1

    I think mine will be white and I'm not overly happy about that but I medicated night ordered 4 4 inch ones about 16 months ago lol... They're about 2-2.5 feet tall now.
    I'm on your dad's team with the miracle gro, only I mix in one bag cactus mix and half a bag miracle gro perlite, then I've got extra perlite I can add depending on the plant as some need less perlite to not be tippy lol
    The bop roots even on a baby are freaking amazing! I would not want to be trying to dig that out of the ground! I got bored with the soil on top of the bop since they're tall and need a larger pot for those roots, so I tossed a pearls and Jade pothos in as a bit of a ground cover. My thought process was "the bop drinks so freaking much it will be next to impossible to drown the pothos" 🤣 so far so good!

    I just moved my b.o.p to a different spot cause I realized my moms built in wall house fan/air conditioner it was under about 1 foot from, the air it was blowing may been the reason many leaves browned:( I gave it a haircut. I don't think it was a watering effect. As it did great in the summer in the greenhouse
    Do you know If this a thing? Air blowing on the leaves causing them to shrivel and brown?

  • @DelightfulDissident
    @DelightfulDissident 5 месяцев назад +4

    Unpopular opinion, i think the orange variety is not visually appealing. It's a shorter and more bunchy and the color does nothing for me, BUT THE WHITE VARIETY 😍 the plant is much taller and the flowers look so elegant in white.
