I have ten pots with Clivia miniata. Inherited. I have had them for fifty years, they are about 100 years old. Beautiful blossoms.
Lucky!
Wow! 💚
I'm in Minnesota. I have a HUGE pot (nearly wr inches across) full of these beauties. My family hates bringing it out in the spring and back inside in the fall. I have had it for over 25 years. I do water it in the winter. We have such drying heat for so many months that I give it about a gallon of water once a month. It sits in a southern facing window. When it goes back out in the spring, it gets whatever Mother Nature has to offer. I feed it in the Spring and it flowers around the first of July. I love it.
From research I've done (lots of youtube videos) I learned that during their dormancy the temperature needs to go down to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. So, I leave mine outside in January and February, but bring them inside when temperatures drop below 50 degrees. I have three that I had for several years, then gave to my mom. They survived, but didn't flower much and when they did it was in the middle of summer. I got them back last year, repotted them into a chunky mix, gave them the dormancy period, and viola all three flowered! Mine have yellow flowers, and want to get my hands on an orange one $$$. There are clubs dedicated to them.
They’re amazing! So not surprised
I have red and orange. Would love a white if there is such a thing!
Oh dear, hearing all these tips is making me realize how much I've abused my poor clivia 😂
The thing has been knocked out of its pot like 3 times by my cat. It had to be repotted and separated from the other clivia it had given seeds to and that grew with it. It's now sitting in a completely north facing window with 0 direct sun light and is watered whenever I remember to (like every 3 weeks, including the dormant phase I didn't know existed 😅). I have no plant skills whatsoever (shocker, I know) so I've literally just ripped out leaves I didn't like the look of.
Despite this it flowers beautifully at least twice a year, last time it got like 8 flowers at once. It's a trooper for sure.
(also if someone has tips on what to do when it gets droopy or yellow leaves, please let me know. Something tells me ripping them out of the ground by force isn't the optimal strategy 😂)
Oh no!
I wish I'd known about the dormant period without watering. I had a Clivia Miniata for several years, during which it bloomed twice. I rarely see one in a greenhouse & they are expensive. Mine was a gift from a friend, who divided hers.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for calling this plant Cl-ee-v-ee-a!
Thanks for this, this was really useful! I've been rehabbing my partner's grandma's 30+ year old clivia the past 6-7 months or so. Well, I repotted it and removed two of the plants that were so crooked they almost made the pot fall over. The roots look like paper straws that have been soaked in water after probably years of underwatering, but I didn't dare to cut them all off and several months later they still haven't rotted somehow. I also potted a pup into a separate pot, so I guess maybe I should pot it back in with mama. They're both growing new leaves at a steady pace through the winter (I had no idea about the dormant need, they've been in the livingroom with grow lights). Just hoping for some pups at some point to fill out the pot again :D
Just found your channel, can't believe it hasn't been recommended to me before, lots of good info, thanks!
Welcome! Thanks for sharing!!
Stunning!
Fiery Orange and gold tones ✨🥰
I just bought my first one. I'm anxious to find more. Thanks for the info video
Congrats!
This is so interesting and I appreciate the information, especially regarding dormancy. Someone in our neighborhood passes away and the family left 4 in one pot on the curb…it’s rebounded well but I wasn’t aware of the dormant period or that it likes to be root bound. I wanted to check about the grouping as I found it that way…now I know that it’s doing great and won’t mess with it too much 🪴
Glad the dormancy information was helpful!! ☺️
Very informative, thanks
Happy to help!
I have a plant with 4 pups now so a nice full plant. Mine blooms in May and lives its best life in my kitchen in an east facing window. I live in the North East.
That's great!
10:40 I have 2 clivias & one has a pup. The smaller one was separated from his parent. I was given the plant because I admired them at my local dry cleaners! Love them ❤
That is awesome!
Thanks for the advice. I have 3 differents pots of Clivia, I will now plant them together. I have one that just started blooming after 4 years. I was starting to give up hope for a bloom, but I love the foliage.
I am in Australia, and I have a beautiful yellow one 💛
Lucky!
Hi, I just bought one of these plants at an estate sale for $15. Thank you for that information because I would’ve kept watering it I believe I have the one with the orange flowers but there’s only small buds on it now. Thanks so much.
Well Tyler, thank you very much for these tips re Clivia plants. NOW I know why they never bloom and looking a bit sad & alone. I have one plant in each pot! Shame on me ☹️ Trip to the local gardencenter tmoro....💰
I’ve had an orange color one only in pot for 8-10 years no blooms
But not aware on drought necessary during winter
I’ll look for another plant
Thanks
Loved your video on clivia and learned things I didn't know. Thank you! I have had problems with yellowing leaves. Do you think that I'm overwatering?
Could be over or under watering
Hi Tyler - Your video was so interesting. I have had my Clivia Miniata for about 3 years now and it usually flowers twice a year. Unfortunately this year I think that I have overwatered it and the tips of some of the leaves have gone brown. Where the new leaves form and the flowers grow it looks as if it has been eaten. The leaves have split and there are brown marks. I did not know that I had to stop watering it. I should be grateful if you would tell me anything I can do to save my plant - thanks.
Love Clivia flower
It's January, not Spring, and my plant has flowered. The flowers peaked out from the dense area between the leaves. But then they stopped. Now they are fading away.
I obtained this one from my Mom about 2 months ago. I have been keeping it on a side table in the foyer that has a mediocre temperature but there is a vent very close by and our heat is on too much and too often due to the build of our home and familial health issues.
The top of one leaf has been as slowly turning (a beautiful, but unwanted) yellow.
Sorry to knot you up, but right now, I only own one. I guess I should be obtaining more as per your suggestion.
And one more thing, I was wondering if we had the exact same plant as mine was definitely a fan shape. But now I see that it's starting to move in other directions.
Thank you
I live in Colorado Springs, Colorado and just purchased a beautiful orange clivia. She is currently blooming. I know you said to fertilize in the spring time - what kind of fertilizer do I use?
Can these plants be planted outside? I live in 9B, pretty hot temps May/ October.
Help my Clivia has rusty brown spots. Is there a way I can share a photo and get your help?
After the plant flowers do you leave the flower stem or cut it off
I have 2 and they are both blooming now!! I did not know to leave them dormat😮
You can hold of watering next winter
I have two of these plants now, one big and one smaller one. Should I put them in the same pot like you said now or wait? They are in separate containers now for about 2 months.
Thanks for the video! I have a 41 year old Clivia that has only bloomed a handful of times. I now know to put the side babies in with it so I'll make that new change. I am in Illinois - I have heard you need the winter temps to be a certain range which you didn't mention at all. I struggle with my house being too cold -ie the garage or attic- or too hot - the house it self or even the basement is not in the 50's. Can you give advice on this?
They have a dormancy period which is critical to flowering. So, sounds like multiple things could be responsible. I leave all my plant water out for a few days before watering; so I water my plants with room temperature water if that helps.
I have one of those plants and I love it is humongous. It's been a huge pot tons of leaves. It blooms once in awhile and it's awesome. I'd like to know what kind of liquid fertilization that I give it. Mine is close to 40 years old. And it's a gorgeous plant
Lucky!
Now I know why my clivia does not give flowers every year. I shall keep it dry in winter (n.y. Area). Thanks.
You’re welcome!!
What do you do after the flowers fall off?
I bought a single plant from a grocery store one year. It was in full bloom with only a few leaves. I almost threw it out after the blooms were gone, but decided to just hold onto it. It took about 5 years, but it started blooming again! I have 2 babies growing beside it and one of the babies just bloomed. It's my most favorite plant!
That’s amazing!
Awe no, last year my Clivia had 4 pups and I noticed some rust on the main plant leaves which I cut off. I had no idea that I had to keep all the babies with the main plant 😔 I separated them and gave them to my family. A year on my Clivia has lost so many leaves… it just about hanging on and at the moment is flowering. Feeling very sad that I might have caused more harm than good!
4 pups though! Best to keep Clivia grouped together
Just tell us the 5 things
Oh, and mine has about 10 plants in the pot
My plants bloomed beautiful but the last 2 yrs the bloom barely comes up😮 I see the color but stays down in the leaves
I’ve experienced that before! I’m not quite sure why. I do know that the one Clivia that did that stopped after a year or two.
Update video please!!!!!!!!
What update are you referring to?
Do I water my clivier from the top or bottom??
I water mine from the top when its not in dormancy
Yellow clivia turned orange?
Cactus mix ok?
Yes, i break down the ingredients in several videos for extra guidance
Nobody can tell me why my 15 year old plus clivias will not flower. Even after I stored them in a refrigerator and kept them dry for two entire months this winter. Have followed all instructions I can get on the web, including cramping the roots in their pots. Just don't get it. Know what I am doing wrong?
Feed them... orchid fertilizer...
I've had mine for over 20 years; it was a gift from my grandfather, who has since passed away. I've only seen it bloom once, the same year he gave it to me; hopefully, I can induce it to bloom this winter. As I wasn’t aware it requires a dormancy period. Wish me luck :)
Nice❤
Will my plant die if its potted alone? I want to share 1 with a friend
They prefer to be in groups and root bound.
@@TylerMossop maybe I could just use a smaller pot if I plant it alone🤔
I actually own about 15 mature Clivia and about 15-20 pups all are planted alone and doing great however I do love the look of five planted together
Can you send me one Clivia
Haha
You can buy them at any nursery, the only problem……… you have to pay for it!!!!,!,!!
Too too wordy
