Clivia

Clivia blooms every year, but never produces seeds? Clivia needs pollination to produce seeds, and the method is super simple!

1. Clivia flowers are divided into pistils and stamens. There are yellow pollen heads on the top of the stamens and a trident column on the top of the pistil. Pollination involves transferring pollen from the stamens to the pistils.

2. Pollination tools can be cotton swabs, acne needles, sewing needles, toothpicks, etc.

3. Use a tool to dip the pollen and apply it on the pistil. Please note that self-pollination will not produce fruit. It requires cross-pollination between different flowers. It is best to cross-pollinate between two different Clivia trees.

6. The fruits of Clivia will gradually become full. When the fruits turn reddish brown and you can hear a sound when you squeeze them with your hands, it means that the seeds of Clivia are ripe.

Cactus

The flowering period of cactus is relatively short, so pollination must be done at the right time. It is best to pollinate within 1 day after the flower blooms.

2. Use tweezers or small scissors to carefully pick up the stamens.

3. Carefully touch the top of the stamen to the pistil so that the pollen sticks to the pistil. Cross-pollination between different flowers is best.

4. Pistil after pollination.

5. After a period of time, the cactus will grow small round fruits.

2. Pollination can be done with a small paintbrush or a cotton swab. The best time to pollinate is on the third day after the flower blooms. At this time, the pistil will be somewhat sticky and will be easier to hold on to pollen.
