Strelitzia reginae is a Tropical or Tender perennial in the Strelitziaceae family. Some commonly known names are the crane flower, bird of paradise, or isigude in Nguni. A native to South Africa. This evergreen perennial is widely cultivated for its dramatic flowers. It grows to 6 and a half feet tall with leaves that are 3 feet long and a foot wide. The flowers are above the foliage at the tips of long stalks. The beak-like sheath from which the flower emerges is called the spathe. This grows perpendicular to the stem and gives the appearance of a bird's head and beak sitting there. The flowers come out one at a time with 3 orange and three purple or white petals, which form a small pool for the sunbirds to drink. Then the pollen gets on the sunbird's feet and is dispersed onto other plants. It is a low-maintenance plant. It prefers to grow in full sun to part shade outside in warmer zones. It can be grown in containers and brought inside for the colder months. It can also be grown inside with adequate sunlight provided. It does like to be watered often and will grow best in rich soils and well-drained. Zones 10-11

Germination

Soak seeds 24 hours. Sow seeds the thickness of the seeds and lightly cover with a medium. Keep moist in a bright spot. Do not cover with plastic but maintain a temperature around 65-75F. Germination 7-30 days.

There a lot of different techniques used for each seed and there is no one way. We will include basic instruction with your packet of seeds that you order but outside of that the more you research and learn on your own the better experience you will have. We have hundreds of seeds and its almost impossible to know everything about each one :)

Very fast shipping, seeds sunk in water to germinate, meaning they’re viable. So excited to plant them. Will purchase from the seller again.

I ended not buying the seed. I did not realized it’s seeds and I am not experienced in growing a tree from seeds. After talking with the seller he cancelled the order. Good customer service and honest. I recommend the seller.
