White Bird of Paradise
Strelitzia nicolai

Medium to High Light Plant.

This exotic tropical plant is native to South Africa. It can grow to 20 feet or more. Its large leathery shiny leaves resemble those of the banana plant. It's an excellent interior foliage specimen for a rich tropical look, and a dramatic focal point for any planting.

The plant derives its name from the unique flower it bears, which resembles a brightly colored bird in flight. Luckily the leaves are attractive enough on their own because these rarely if ever flower in indoor light settings.
