Baby Bird of Paradise Tips
I finally got my hands on an adorable Bird of Paradise today. I read on Greg that they’re considered “medium” for care. I would LOVE some tips and advice on caring for her. I use a grow light for most of my plants that require sun, how far away should I put her? I also read that being too close can burn her. All tips and tricks welcome!

Congrats on your new baby!
She can take more light than most, especially when she gets bigger. The grow light would need to be super close to burn, but sunburn can happen with grow lights. Introduce her to more light gradually.
BOP leaves will tell you what she needs. If the leaves are droopy, give her more light.
