Strelitzia Nicolai
from 1.000 MDL
“Life is better with Strelitzia” – that’s how any title for this plant queen should begin. Strelitzia is a stunning display of large tropical leaves that can reach up to seven metres in the wilds of southern Africa – not indoors, of course. Its spectacular flowers look very much like birds in flight with their wings outstretched.
Do you know who Strelitzia’s cousin is? That’s right, the banana tree. It’s just less fussy and easier to grow indoors. They are often mistaken for each other because of their seemingly similar leaves. To grow lush, it needs a very well-lit spot away from the cold. It’s also very important not to pot it. Otherwise, it’s on its own.
Fun fact: The Bird of Paradise is so revered in South Africa that its flower is engraved as a symbol on the 50-cent coin.
The plant comes in a basic nursery pot.

The Boston fern is one of the easiest ferns to care for, which has made it a popular houseplant for decades. It is not difficult to look after, but it does require some special care. The most important thing is to give it the ideal growing conditions: standard room temperature (13-24°C), plenty of humidity and indirect light. If the humidity is too low, the leaves will turn yellow. Another important aspect is the soil. It must be kept moist as one of the main reasons why the plant may not survive is dry soil.
A popular display is a hanging basket. Arranged in this way, the leaves of the plant will arch towards the basket, giving the appearance of floating in the air. Boston ferns are not considered toxic to pets or children. In a pot or hanging from a modern macrame hanger, the Boston Fern is a wonderful addition to the kitchen or bathroom.

Over the past few years, the Ficus Lyrata has been creating waves of admiration around the world. Thanks to its numerous appearances in popular design magazines, blogs and social media, it has been catapulted to superstar status in the plant world.
Any plant is a positive addition to your living or working space, but some plants have a much richer visual impact. Take Ficus Lyrata, for example. This plant is almost a work of art in itself. You can’t miss its violin-shaped leaves, crisscrossed with distinct, pale veins that add texture. The best part is that as the leaves grow larger, they become even more impressive.
Don’t worry if it loses a leaf or two after delivery – it needs time to adapt to its new home. It’s perfectly normal. It may also shed a few leaves in winter, and while it is small, the Ficus can live temporarily on shelves. Once it has grown, it will be placed on the floor because of its larger size.

Asparagus plumosa or asparagus fern is neither fern nor asparagus, although it looks similar and is closely related to the common edible garden asparagus. Its presence in the house brings a “forest” vibe and it really likes hanging in baskets on the terrace or balcony during the summer.
Indoors, the key to a robust asparagus fern is to keep the plant well-watered, bushy and dense so that the lace-like foliage forms an attractive mound.

From aromatherapy to floral arrangements, there are many ways to enjoy eucalyptus. Eucalyptus plants thrive indoors as decorative shrubs with aromatic, fragrant leaves. They are not overly demanding, but a few guidelines will ensure optimum care.
Plant the eucalyptus in a large, conical pot for easy transplanting outdoors. Although resistant to drought, potted eucalyptus will dry out more quickly than in the garden. Be sure to water thoroughly until excess water drains away; good drainage is essential as eucalyptus does not tolerate waterlogged soil.
If you’re growing eucalyptus indoors, place the pot near a south-facing window so it gets plenty of sunlight. Regular pruning is necessary due to its rapid growth.

Bonsai trees are a fascinating art form that combines Asian aesthetics and feng shui in the homes of those who choose to care for them.
Translated, ‘bonsai’ means ‘planted in a bowl’. Bonsai is a true philosophy of life, a hobby that brings peace of mind and helps us to cope with everyday stress. Caring for a single tree in a pot is a kind of small-scale gardening.
Pruning is also important to keep bonsai trees small and in perfect shape. Maintenance pruning strengthens the bonsai and encourages new branch growth.

Thanks to its glossy appearance, the ficus spreads an unmistakable feeling of well-being, especially if you position it as it likes: in a bright place, but away from direct sunlight. In its natural habitat, it can reach up to 30 metres in height. Don’t worry, you won’t have to drill a hole in the roof, as as a houseplant it usually reaches 2-3 metres. How to care for it, find out in Plant Library.
