Care Instructions:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light or partial shade. Avoid harsh direct sun.

Watering: Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil have dried; reduce watering in winter to encourage flowering.

Humidity: Average indoor humidity is ideal; no misting required.

Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix — slightly sandy or gritty is perfect.

Feeding: Fertilise every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a balanced liquid feed.

Temperature: Keep between 15–24°C. Cooler winter nights (10–12°C) help trigger blooms.

Growth: Typically reaches 30–50 cm tall and wide.

🌿 Tip: Clivia prefers to be slightly root-bound. Avoid frequent repotting to maintain strong blooming cycles.
