Recommended for the Bird of Paradise is bright indirect light indoors, but they can survive with low level light. If placing outside, then direct sunlight will make the Bird of Paradise grow rapid, therefore, placed in part shade part sun would be ideal.
Feed every two weeks or once a month in the winter time with plant fertilizer. Let the soil dry out between watering and avoid over watering as this could cause root and pests to appear.
Non-toxic to animals as some do love gnawing on these plants, but the seeds are toxic, causing abdominal pain and vomiting so beware of this if you have pets.
