Hey everyone, I have just moved house and decided I needed a massive plant in this corner. All of my other houseplants are small to medium sized, and I water them by filling my sink or bath a couple of inches and letting them soak for a few hours. I obviously can't do that with this beauty, so wanted some advice so that I don't kill it! She's a Strelitzia Nicolai, 210cm tall in a 32cm pot, I'm not sure how much water to give it since I can't do the soak method. I'm worried about under or over watering it because I spent quite a pretty penny on her. Thanks for the advice!
