    Your How to guide is basicaly;
    1) It comes from africa,
    2) It dies in the frost
    3) Buy some Fake flowers so you can pretend you grew something.

    Come on! Give some advice on soil/repoting/watering/feeding!

    I've gotten mine to bloom in San Antonio by allowing them to get root-bound.
    They seem to get desperate and will send out blooms to regenerate.
    I occasionally hit them up with Bloom Booster.
    BTW: I was hoping this vid would be informative.
    If you want a houseplant, you buy the white bird for it's leaves.

    From the video we can see the leaves are withering, I think that is common problem, and that also leads me to this video.

    I spotted some transparent plastic heat insulator was used at the background, I am considering replicating that, but from other text sources, this plant also need good ventilation. Too many small decisions for amateurs like me.

    Showing on how to properly grow bird-of-paradise are quite very easy to apply. Even beginners could somehow easily grow such plants. Nice information and I would be pleased to learn more from your gardening tips.

    mines seem to by dying! I don't know how to help it though, when i first got it i did repot it and have given it food, only feed it once a week, currently living in LA and all the leaves are turning brown…?

    i am happy to have 4 of the 6 species. I have the natural yellow reginae which is much more compact than the Mandelas gold. I am from South Africa so i see them all over!
