The white bird of paradise (Strelitzia nicolai) is a lesser-known Feng Shui houseplant, but one that is thought to have a huge impact on your life and home if placed optimally. Experts say it's a houseplant that stands out, encouraging visibility and recognition.
The white variety of this beautiful South African native plant requires just the same bird of paradise care as its classic orange counterpart (Strelitzia reginae like this one from The Sill). Though the white bird of paradise is a larger plant than the orange variety, both have the iconic, unique bird-shaped flowers. Generally, they require straightforward care, but to encourage big and bright blooms, sunlight is key.
