Clivia blooms every winter and the next year's Spring Festival. The blooming time during the flowering period will be maintained at about 20 days. The overall opening time should be based on the size of the Clivia and the nutrient content in the flower soil. The nutrient content in the soil is more. The Clivia will bloom longer, and the longer the longer it can reach 40 days.
Cultivation of Clivia is very important. After raising it for a year, you can finally see blooming, but instead you don’t have flower arrows. For the problem of Clivia not blooming, or the problem of picking up arrows, the main reason is that the root system of Clivia has not grown well, or there is not enough nutrients in the flower soil to support the growth of Clivia. These two problems are only needed to be improved.
Usually, Clivia needs to bloom more than 6 pairs of leaves, and it takes about three years of Clivia to complete its flowering. Clivia with too small age will not bloom. Everyone should be clear about this.
In order to make the Clivia bloom smoothly, many people change flower soil every year in spring. In personal understanding, changing the flower soil can help Clivia grow better because the new flower soil is rich in nutrients, but they don’t know that this method is wrong.
To raise Clivia, you must first cultivate the root system. Only when the root system is strong enough and vigorous enough can you absorb more nutrients in the flower soil and support flowering. Sometimes the lack of blooming is not because the lack of nutrients in the flower soil, but because the root system of Clivia is not growing vigorously and has poor absorption ability, which ultimately leads to the failure to bloom.
The Clivia we raise in our home can change the flower soil once in 3 to 4 years. The soil does not need to be replaced frequently. Each time we change the soil, the Clivia needs to re-root. The process of root formation takes at least 2 to 3 months. If the root system is not full of the pot, it is difficult to bloom. It takes about 3 to 5 months to grow a good Clivia. It will take about 3 to 5 months to cultivate the root system, strengthen the light and water it more, so that its root system can grow rapidly.
The favorable condition for root growth is sunlight. With sufficient light, you can perform photosynthesis . The more photosynthesis is, the faster the cells in the Clivia growth point divide , the faster the root system will grow faster. In addition, loose and breathable flower soil is needed. You can use blocky pine bark or pine needle , paired with humus , or black soil in the northeast for planting.
Clivia does not require nutrient soil, ordinary humus soil is very useful, which is conducive to fixing the root system. The new root system will not be hindered while growing.
In autumn every year, it is best to apply some slow-release fertilizer to Clivia, or nutritional fertilizer, and use the root irrigation method to allow the root system of Clivia to be better absorbed, the roots in the soil grow vigorously enough, and with enough nutrient support, it will become very simple to bloom.
