Clivia Yellow

Exotic copper-orange or yellow flowers add a warm glow in the shade. Grows to 75cm by 60cm.  Water well in spring and summer but keep soil drier in autumn and winter. Use a complete fertiliser in spring. Dead head after flowering if desired (this removes seed heads). Otherwise leave them to set seed. Seedlings will take about four or five years before they flower.

Clivia are incredibly tough, resiliant plant which brighten the garden during late winter and early spring with clusters of vibrant yellow throated, orange or salmon trumpet flowers. The flowers are held on stalks above the clump of dark green strap-like leaves.

 Clivias come from South Africa and grow in most areas of Australia – from Tasmania to the Tropics. In colder areas such as the mountains and Tasmania clivias need protection from frost and extreme cold.
