Clivia can grow up to 1.8 meters, a priceless treasure that cannot be bought even with money

Swamp Clivia

Comparing with the flower garden, the swamp Clivia has grown so big that it is almost poking the roof~

The swamp Clivia was actually discovered in South Africa in 2004. It grows in acidic sandy soil and can grow up to 1.8 meters tall! What is most surprising is that in its native South Africa, its roots can even reach 4.5 meters!

The three photos above are photos of the Marsh Clivia when it is in bloom. It looks a bit like the Michelia Clivia, but there are some differences in color, and the stamens of the Marsh Clivia are directly exposed~

Clivia with stems

The flower-growing encyclopedia has stem Clivia, and the plant height is generally between 50cm and 150cm. The height of a mature Clivia plant is generally more than one meter.

One thing that makes the stemmed Clivia different from other Clivias is that the adult stemmed Clivia has stems above the ground. If you look closely at the picture below, you can see the obvious stem part.

Perhaps because of the part of the stem that is above the ground, stemmed Clivia generally grows quite tall.

The flowers of the stemmed Clivia are also slightly drooping, somewhat similar to the laughing Clivia, but the color is orange-red.

Clivia miniata

Flower Growing Encyclopedia

The fine-leaved Clivia is actually also called the laughing Clivia. The plant is usually 80~130cm tall and is a common variety in homes.

Other Clivia varieties

These are the big ones among Clivia.

But Huahua will also introduce some other varieties of Clivia~

As shown in the picture above, the leaves of Clivia are half white and half green, called "Yuanyang Dao", and are generally referred to as Yuanyang Cailan.

The picture above shows a colorful path, with white and green parts staggered and distributed in a certain proportion. Because of its unique leaf color, it is loved by many flower lovers~

(Author: Lao Cui)

Like the Clivia in the picture above, the edges of the leaves are white, while the middle is green. It is called the Clivia miniata and the price can be around ten thousand!

Another thing is that the leaves are mostly green, but there are also traces of white on the leaves. However, the white is very little and unevenly distributed, which is called golden silk.

It has a round head and a monk-like body, short and thick leaves, and bright flowers that are large and colorful. Deeply loved by flower lovers.
