Clivia miniata

Clivia (Bush lily, Fire Lily) is a beautiful and said to be indestructible plant with deep green, strap-like leaves. It flowers in early spring, but flowering times do vary, depending on the species. The lily shaped blooms on strong stems and last for several weeks and flowers come in vibrant shades of red, yellow, and orange and are an ideal indoor plant. Clivia will thrive indoors and require very little care, growing larger and more impressive with age.

I grow my Clivia outdoors in the fernery with a westerly aspect, it gets filtered sunlight in summer and is well protected the direct summer sun and from the cold and frosts. It receives very little water in winter and is watered sparingly in summer. The blooms of the Clivia never fail to impress!! I love this plant....
