Strelizia Nicolai really brings the jungle to your home! With its glossy, verdant large leaves stretching upwards, this White Bird of Paradise really brings the tropical rainforest to your living rooms. Its lush looks and fresh feel makes you think of hot, humid days and nights in exotic locations.
It’s originally from South Africa but we have it here in our wonderful house plant shop so that you can bring that tropical style to your living spaces! It allows its leaves to split to let light get to the base.
We know you want beautiful houseplants online and we think this Strelizia will really add class and style to any home. You may even get flowers on your White Bird of Paradise - you need to wait a couple of years before flowers are produced.
This Strelizia makes a stunning part of any houseplant collection - or it may be the only one you have! In any case, it will bring you pleasure every time you look at it - houseplants are also good for mental health!
If you want to give this amazing plant as a houseplant gift, we’ll add a free, handwritten card. Just leave your message at the basket stage of the checkout and we’ll sort it out!

Happy Houseplants delivers live houseplants across the UK with fast, carbon-neutral tracked service.
At Happy Houseplants, we ship all live plants via DPD’s 24-hour tracked carbon-neutral service. Delivery usually takes 7–10 working days, but in most cases your plants will arrive much sooner. You can read more about delivery here.
We post to most of the UK, but we’re unable to deliver to the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Isle of Wight, the Scilly Isles and the Channel Islands because of higher shipping costs.
When we list a plant’s height, it always includes the grow pot, stem, foliage and living root system — not just what you see above the soil. Because every plant is unique, yours may arrive a little smaller or larger than the size listed.
