How to grow Clivia

How to grow Clivia

1. Temperature

Clivia is afraid of both extreme heat and severe cold, and the ideal growth temperature is between 12 and 28 degrees. Too high a temperature will cause it to hibernate, and too low a temperature will cause frostbite.

2. Light

The light requirements are not particularly high, and it is best to place it in a place with bright diffuse light. It also has strong shade tolerance because Clivia grows under big trees in its place of origin.

3. Soil

The soil must be loose, fertile and well-drained. The traditional domestic maintenance method is to use the fallen and semi-rotten leaves of large-leaf trees such as oak or oak for cultivation. Larch pine needles or mushroom waste base materials, which are more granular cultivation substrates, are also acceptable.

4. Water

Its roots are fleshy, so water accumulation must be avoided. During general maintenance, it is necessary to wet the plant when it is dry, and water it thoroughly when it is dry. When caring for it, avoid watering it into the center of the leaves, and avoid it from rain in summer.

5. Rotate the pot

The leaves of Clivia are sensitive to light. When caring for it, the tip of the leaf must be facing the light source. When rotating the pot, it must be rotated 180 degrees so that the leaves can grow evenly and symmetrically on both sides. If the angle of the pot is rotated at a random angle, the leaves will tend to grow in a messy manner.
