The main varieties of Clivia miniata

1. Main varieties

It mainly includes three varieties: fine-leaved yellow-flowered Clivia, fine-leaved white-flowered Clivia, and fine-leaved red-flowered Clivia.

2. Clivia with fine leaves and yellow flowers

It was introduced from South Africa, Japan, Australia and other countries. The length of the leaves is between 60cm and 70cm. The leaves are oblique and dark green in color. The leaves are dull and the flower arrows are relatively thin. Its flowers are light yellow, funnel-shaped, arranged in an umbrella shape, and bloom at the top of the center of the plant. Seeing it will make people feel very warm and want to keep it at home.

3. Clivia with fine leaves and white flowers

It is similar to the fine-leaved yellow-flowered Clivia, and was also mainly introduced from South Africa, Japan, Australia and other countries. The shape of the leaves is also very similar, but the main difference between it and the former lies in the flower color and shape. Its flowers are milky white in color, and their shapes are both lily-like and funnel-shaped. Its flowers are whiter than snow and bloom under the symmetrical leaves on both sides, giving people a feeling of nobility and elegance.

4. Fine-leaved red-flowered Clivia

It is mainly introduced from South Africa and Japan. The shape of its leaves is almost the same as the above two varieties, so I will not go into details here. What makes it different from the above two varieties is the color of the flowers. Its flowers are mainly bright red or orange-red, which, paired with its shiny green leaves, form the classic green leaves and red flowers. Whenever it blooms, the green leaves make its flowers look particularly bright and beautiful, giving people a very good visual enjoyment.

5. Identification method

The names of these three flowers are based on the colors of the other flowers, so they are very easy to distinguish.

6. Their origins

In fact, the fine-leaved Clivia is also a variety of Clivia. It was formed by the mutation of large-flowered Clivia to become yellow-flowered Clivia, and then three varieties with different flower colors were formed.
