Went to take my trash out today and was so surprised to find this by the dumpster!! I believe it’s a bird of paradise, but not 100% sure. Any tips on taking care of them?

if it is a bird of paradise then use distilled water. they also like watering pretty often (maybe when top inch of soil is dry) and high humidity

Never would’ve thought about using distilled water, thank you!

Lucky find looks pretty healthy too! They love lots and lots of light and higher humidity if possible! Well draining soil and just water when top half is dry.

It is 10000% a BoP

I was so surprised! I could not imagine leaving one of these behind
