Bird of Paradise (Strelitzia reginae) is a tropical plant known for its vibrant, bird-like flowers. Here are some key care tips:
- USDA Zones: Bird of Paradise thrives in USDA Zones 9-11. In these zones, the plant can be grown outdoors year-round. In cooler zones, it can be grown in containers and moved indoors during winter.
- Sunlight: Bird of Paradise thrives in full sun to partial shade. In cooler climates, full sun encourages more blooms, while in hotter regions, partial shade helps protect the plant from scorching.
- Soil: It prefers well-draining, fertile soil rich in organic matter. A slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5-7.0) is ideal for healthy growth.
- Watering: Water the plant deeply and regularly, especially during the growing season (spring to summer). Let the soil dry slightly between waterings to avoid root rot. Reduce watering in the winter when the plant is dormant.
- Fertilization: Feed Bird of Paradise with a balanced fertilizer (10-10-10 or 20-20-20) during the growing season, every 4-6 weeks. Organic compost can also be applied to enrich the soil.
- Temperature: The plant prefers temperatures between 65-70°F (18-21°C) and can tolerate temperatures down to 50°F (10°C). In cooler climates, it should be brought indoors during winter or protected from frost.
- Pruning: Remove dead leaves and spent flowers to encourage new growth and maintain the plant's appearance. Overcrowded plants can be divided every 2-3 years to maintain their size and vigor.
- Propagation: Bird of Paradise can be propagated by division of rhizomes in spring or summer.
History of Bird of Paradise
The Bird of Paradise is native to South Africa and was introduced to Europe in the late 18th century. It was named after Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, the wife of King George III of England. Known as the "Queen's Plant" in South Africa, it became a popular ornamental plant due to its unique and exotic flowers, which resemble the plumage of a tropical bird.
The plant symbolizes freedom and joy, and its striking blooms have made it a favorite in gardens and floral arrangements around the world. It remains an iconic plant in tropical and subtropical landscapes, prized for its bold foliage and long-lasting flowers.

Smells good, covers well, it does leave a white sheen, I don’t need to reapply.
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use this just once on my face in the morning, apply makeup over it, and I haven’t burned yet! Been using it for two years now. Unfortunate thing is that my face is not tan at all because it doesn’t allow any rays. LOL So I my makeup has to match the rest of my body… I stay under an umbrella at the beach for about half of the time that I’m there. Otherwise I am out in the sun. And I do not reapply this. I am in the sun between the hours of 9 and 1 PM and I’m in and out of the shade and sun half of the time. Still no burning. Actually I don’t think I reapplied it at all once I got home from the beach and I was out at the pool regularly for another hour with no shade. So it seems to be pretty darn good! Some people say they don’t like the smell, but I specifically bought it because I love love love the coconut smell. My daughter says it smells like bananas but I don’t like the smell of bananas and I don’t think it smells like that.
It does definitely leave a white sheen. Hence my need for make up.

Great for Hawaii!
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I spent hours trying to find a sunscreen that was “reef safe” since I was going to be spending a lot of time near corals and this was the best one I found. It doesn’t have any of the 3 ‘O’ ingredients that are known to damage reefs. And the zinc is non nano as well.
Sunscreen goes on easily. One of the better mineral sunscreens I’ve tried, this one actually smooths out like lotion and feels hydrating. Only leaves a slight pinkish hue, but that is inevitable with mineral sunscreens (that’s literally how they work in reflecting the sun). I could feel it on even in the ocean so I get protected, but still reapplied almost every 2 hours. No burns!
I didn’t use it on my face but my partner did and it never stung his eyes nor caused any breakouts!

Stick format is thick and difficult to rub in moderate climates
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I wanted to like it because the small stick format seemed very convenient to keep in my bag for emergency sunscreen reapplication with no chance of leaks.
But I think I have learned my lesson about stick sunscreen - in order to hold together in a stick, it has to have a thick and chalky consistency. Which makes it hard to apply and hard to rub in. It's so thick that if I rub the stick over my entire face it feels like I'm applying way too much with a super heavy white cast, and if I dab here and there and try to spread it around, it's so thick it doesn't feel like it spreads into good coverage. The scent is fine.
Update: I have found a specific use case for this - in extreme UV conditions like the equatorial tropics in midsummer, it's a good base layer under a more liquid mineral sunscreen, to add extra protection to the most exposed skin, like tops of shoulders, chest, nose and top of forehead. The thickness makes it protect better. It also softens a little and rubs in better in hot temps.

Needs to be warmed, but works great for quick face re-application
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I love mineral sunscreen, it really works the best. But I also do not love mineral sunscreen because it's hard to apply. I don't think it matters what you do, they're just always difficult to apply and always leaving the white. This one isn't much different.
I'm a scuba diver and my face sunscreen is washed off quickly doing multiple dives. I also get a weird "mask sunburn" if I don't reapply... but since I'm a diver I can't bring myself to buy or wear sunscreen that's not reef safe into the ocean. I was unsure if this would work because it's pretty solid. I threw it in my bag and once the sun warmed it up a little, I was able to apply it fairly easily between dives. I don't think it works unless it's warmed a bit first, but I like it for this purpose.

Good sunscreen
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It works and it's vegan what's more to say. I repurchase this often.
