Bird Paradise

I have a Bird of Paradise plant, which has taken 7 years to flower? I've heard that this is normal?
Is this correct? Also, I'd like to know if it is ok to prune the 2 dead flowers, and just how low would I cut them ?
Seven years is longer than the average. When started from seed, they begin to bloom when they are about 4-5 years old--according to this article: http://www.bachmans.com/retail/tipsheets/indoor_plants/birdofparadise.cfm
Other sources say 3-5 years. This one had some additional info that may be helpful to you:

Yet, this one said 6 years:

Note: You can probably cut the dead blossoms off close to the main stem.

Snowy White - Bird Of Paradise
Is the browning edges of a bird of paradise normal?
I recently got a bird of paradise, I give it at least four hours of indirect sunlight a day, sometimes direct. I've yet to get a spray bottle to help with the humidity. I've put water on the leaves once to deal with that issue. It is near a heat vent, could this play a part? The leaves are a bit torn from recently being in a small green house and catching on some hooks while we were moving it. The actual edges are crispy, but the leaves are still green. Is this normal?
Good Morning Kirsie J ,
I just got back from walking at Venice beach. Then I had to take the wife to get a leg of lamb for Easter dinner. Please do not mess up on my (smile) favorite flowering plant. I hope I can be the cavalry.
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Aj3HUbRu9DMHkQChXHOUPlDty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20091203154819AAZnBbN&show=7#profile-info-sUxUWGe2aa
NO! Brown and yellow leaves are not normal. Make sure your Bird of Paradise receives adequate moisture during the first six months. Both totally dry and soggy soil conditions will make the leaves yellow and eventually die. I think your heat vent is causing this problem. Your plant needs stable moisture conditions for at lease six months.
After the first six months (the establishment period), frequent watering and spray on leaves provides the ideal amount of moisture. During the winter months, made sure your soil is dry before watering.
Mulch will help your plant retain moisture and stabilize root temperatures. Do not put mulch against the plant base/stems. Leave an inch circular area around the stems free of mulch. Constant contact between mulch and the stems of the plant can cause stem rot. I use dried leaves and grass cuttings for my mulch.
Also, it is okay for the roots in your container to become a little crowded. It will not hurt your Bird of Paradise plant. That is completely normal for this type of plant.
Try to provide more direct sunlight. By the book, is not always right.
Please be a better nurse, and don't you hurt my favorite plant. Your rewards will be worth your effort. You can look forward to years of beautiful flowers. Does your plant have (smile again) a name?
Good luck Kirsie J. You and your family have a great Easter Sunday. Peace, from Los Angeles.
