Description
Liven up your indoor jungle with a blast of vivid blooms! Clivia miniata 'Orange' throws out some serious coral-coloured flower power once it gets going. It may take a little time and patience before you’re rewarded with the flowers, which usually appear in the second year, but in the meantime you get to enjoy its lush, glossy evergreen foliage. You’ll need to create a warm environment for this tropical delight in order to enjoy it at its best, so it’s one ideally for a conservatory or warm, bright indoor space.
Clivia miniata 'Orange' requires some special growing conditions so we recommend you check our full growing instructions to make sure it’ll be happy in the space you have available. They’ll need to spend the winter season in cool conditions (no cooler than 10°C) in order to get them to flower each year. Throughout the rest of the year, they need temperatures of between 20-30°C to thrive. If you have the right space, it’s time to put your green fingers to the test!
