Post flower pruning

(author: Hongwei smile; source: Clivia bar)

After the flower withers, the pedicel must be cut off, because keeping it will consume the nutrients of the Clivia plant and make it easy to bear seeds. When cutting, start an inch away from the root. After cutting, the juice will flow out, suck it off with toilet paper, and then apply some plant ash or carbendazim

If you want to collect the seeds of Clivia, you can wait for them to wither and fall off after pollination, or pull them out after collecting the seeds

Watering after flowers

After the flower withers, if the basin soil is still wet, do not water it until the soil 2 ~ 3cm on the surface of the basin soil is dry. Remember to water too much

Note: if the temperature is below 30 ℃, you can add a little liquid fertilizer when watering, and the effect will be better~

Turn over the pot and replace the soil after flowering

Generally speaking, it is best to turn the basin after the flowering of Clivia every year, because a large amount of nutrients and trace elements in the basin soil are consumed during the flowering period. If the original soil is used next, it is easy to lead to insufficient fertility and trace elements

1. Preparation: mix rotten leaf soil, pine needles, river sand and charcoal residue in the proportion of 5:2:2:1, and prepare solid fertilizers such as hemp seeds and sunflower seeds to fry or fermented bone meal and bean cake fertilizer for standby

2. Do not water the basin within 5 ~ 15 days before changing the basin, so that the basin soil can be separated from the basin wall. How much time depends on the situation

3. Take the Clivia out of the pot, shake off the old soil, and cut off the rotten or empty roots

4. Fill in a part of soil in the new flowerpot larger than the original flowerpot, and then fill in a layer of fried hemp seeds, melon seeds or other base fertilizer, cover it with soil and plant Clivia

5. Do not water the basin immediately after it is put into the basin. Wait 2 ~ 3 days before watering to avoid wound infection at the root. Put it in a cool and ventilated place for a few days, and then put it on the windowsill or balcony across the glass

Raising leaves after flowering

It's also a good choice to enjoy the leaves after the flower withers. Therefore, you must pay attention to the cleaning of the leaf surface of Clivia after flowering. For example, wipe the leaves of Clivia with diluted beer ten times, otherwise it will be covered with a thick layer of ash, which will make people bored

Every other week, turn the basin for Clivia to avoid the crooked leaves

Fertilization after anthesis

If you don't want to change the pot for Clivia, you can choose to top fertilize Clivia every 15 ~ 20 days. The fertilizers you can use include bone meal, fried sesame, cooked soybean, compound fertilizer, self-made flower fertilizer after ripening, etc. pay attention to the balance of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium~

Remember to apply thin fertilizer frequently. It's better to reduce it and avoid fat burning seedlings

Light after flower

Clivia likes to change scattered light and is afraid of direct sunlight. After flowering, proper cooling, avoiding strong light irradiation, and maintaining good indoor ventilation can prolong the time of flower appreciation

But before flowering every year, place Clivia in a place with good light, which is conducive to the development of flower buds

Is your Clivia finished

You can't miss these maintenance~
