Ich habe keine Ahnung, wie ich diese Pflanze glücklicher und gesünder machen kann. Sie bildet immer noch neue Triebe, aber die Blätter reißen oft ein und fallen um. Bitte Experten, helfen Sie mir, sie zu retten!
Edit: Vielen Dank an alle für das Feedback! Ein neuer Topf wurde bestellt und ich schneide möglicherweise die bereits gebogenen Stiele zurück. Auf diesem Foto befindet sich hinter mir (zur Pflanze hin) ein Fenster mit einem Schatten, den wir offen lassen können. Wir leben im PNW, daher stehen wir leider vor einer düstereren Jahreszeit. Wenn wir dazu beitragen könnten, dass diese Pflanze kürzer und voller wird, wäre das großartig.

This plant needs a larger pot and much more light.
Bigger pot, more light
Jesus!!! What a trooper of a plant! No light? No problem, I’ll just grow 10 ft….
i feel you bro. must be north/south facing and possibly recessed
That pot is hilariously small 😭
Another vote for a larger pot! I’d also stick with an orange bird of paradise for interior enjoyment. This looks like a white one – these can get pretty sizable.
The low light conditions probably make it extend its leaves further. If you want to keep it smaller and compact i would give it more light and not give it a bigger pot as this would make it grow larger. Small pot but more light.
Super Thrive can be found in the fertilizer area of your garden center. Its not a fertilizer, more of a vitamin supplement for plants.
It greatly reduces transplant shock in plants. At least that’s been my experience. I use it once a month for normal watering
It needs stakes to keep them upright.
Im wondering at this point it will grow legs and walk off ..
I also live in the PNW and have sooo many plant lights. I think it’s necessary here and I think it might double as light therapy lol
>If we could help this plant be shorter and fuller that would be awesome.
It needs sunlight. The leaves are stretched and flopping over because it’s desperate for light. Trimming them won’t do anything except encourage more growth, which will also be floppy, because there isn’t enough light.
Based on the current size, I think that might be the white variety. They get massive. Like 30 feet tall. A tree-sized tropical plant isn’t ever going to thrive in a living room in a cold climate with only one small window several feet away. It might survive for a while but it will always look scraggly and it will eventually succumb to the bad environment it’s in.
Some VERY strong grow lights might help. Look for the type that cannabis growers use. Avoid the cheap lights on Amazon, they’re garbage and nowhere near sufficient for that species.
Sorry, I’m from California. We keep those outside as landscape plants in full sun. I’m trying to process that as a houseplant, especially one that isn’t smooshed against a massive south-facing window. 🤯
Moooore liiiiiiight.
bigger space
