Can Strelitzia be placed in the bedroom?

1. Is it possible?

The answer is not recommended. In fact, we can put it in places like the balcony, and it doesn’t have to be in the bedroom. Some friends may think that this plant is non-toxic and can purify the surrounding environment, so why not plant it? In fact, considering that the bedroom is a place for rest, there are many factors that we need to take into account. It is not recommended to keep this plant in the bedroom for many reasons.

2. Reasons for not recommending

(1) First, we can start with its own habits. Friends who have raised this plant must know that it has a particularly high demand for light. Normally, it takes at least four hours a day. Of course, not to mention that the time needs to be extended appropriately in winter. The light in the bedroom may not be enough for its needs. So, from this perspective, it is not appropriate.

(2) Then there is the issue of space. The space in the bedroom is generally not too large, and it may cause some trouble to maintain it, so it is not suitable to place it there.

(3) In addition, we all know that green plants cannot carry out photosynthesis at night and can only breathe. Then, some O2 will inevitably be consumed and some CO2 will be released. Although the quantity is not large, it is still within our consideration.

3. Placement considerations

If you really want to put it there and the bedroom space is large enough, you can put it there. However, you need to be aware of its light requirements. Place it in a well-lit location, or take it out to dry in the sun from time to time.
