Why are there no new leaves growing on my Strelitzia (Bird of Paradise)?

Our Advice:

If there are no new leaves growing on your Strelitzia, it may be due to insufficient light. Strelitzia plants need bright, indirect light to grow and thrive. Overwatering or underwatering can also lead to stunted growth and a lack of new leaves. Additionally, a lack of nutrients or too much fertiliser can affect the plant's growth and prevent new leaves from growing.
