Clivia

Up to 20 orange flowers form the umbels that adorn the handsome, fanned, evergreen leaves of this Clivia. The vibrant flowers are followed by fine-looking, glossy orange seed heads. These large plants will flower in around a year so you won't have to wait too long!

Clivias are much loved around the world for their beautiful foliage and impressive flowers. They are recognised as invaluable for their unique ability to add lots of impact to shady gardens. The beauty of Clivias is that they are also exceptionally tolerant of dry shady spots which are usually a garden's greatest challenge.

Clivias can be frost sensitive but an overhead canopy of trees in their favourite shade position provides ample protection. You can also grow Clivia in pots, they even make good house plants.

Clivias generally flower once they are established enough for 12 or so leaves. These drought tolerant plants will thrive in dry shaded areas. Plant in well drained soil.
