How to stake bird of paradise


I’ve had this BOP for years and it loves this window. Every now and then, the lady who cleans my house ties the plant to the wall or something else. (We love her, she’s very sweet, and she’s just trying to help, so no shade at her!) but that means that the stems kinda lean or their natural tendency changes, if that makes sense? It’s pretty droopy now and I’d love to know how to stake it properly so it’s not too top heavy. Or any other suggestions on it!
Water heavily every week or so and there is drainage in the pot!

    It might help to have a bigger pot. And as you repot, you can insert sticks and tie each branch to a stake with a soft string.
