Clivia Questions

1. Are clivias expensive?

A good sized Clivia typically costs about $20. Larger grades can sell for $60-$100. The Plant Company advises avoiding very small grades as these can die easily and any savings from buying cheap plants are lost quickly.

2. What is the difference between red clivia and orange clivia?

Red clivias and orange clivias are both members of the same species, Clivia miniata. The main difference between the two is the colour of their flowers. Red clivias have flowers that are a deep red colour, while orange clivias have flowers that are a bright orange colour.

3. Are yellow clivias rare?

Yellow clivias are rare, but not as rare as they used to be. They were first discovered in the wild in South Africa over 40 years ago, and since then, breeders have developed a number of yellow cultivars. However, yellow clivias are still relatively rare, especially compared to orange and red clivias.

There are two main reasons why yellow clivias are rare. First, the yellow flower colour is caused by a recessive gene. This means that both parents of a yellow clivia must carry the recessive gene in order for the offspring to be yellow. Second, yellow clivias are more susceptible to pests and diseases than other clivia cultivars.

Despite their rarity, yellow clivias are highly prized by collectors and gardeners. They are known for their beautiful, delicate flowers and their unique colour. If you are lucky enough to find a yellow clivia plant, be sure to cherish it!

4. How many colours of clivia are there?

There are a wide variety of clivia colours available, including orange, red, yellow, cream, pink, apricot, and peach. Some clivias even have variegated flowers with multiple colours. The most common colour is orange, but red clivias are also very popular. Yellow clivias are found less frequently, but are becoming more common as breeders develop new cultivars. Cream, pink, apricot, and peach clivias are also relatively rare, but they are available.

5. Do clivias multiply?

Yes, clivias multiply as they become larger plants overall. They do this naturally by producing offsets. These are baby plants that sprout from the base of the mother plant, sharing its root system. Once they reach a size of about 10-15 cm, they can be gently separated from the mother plant and potted up independently.

6. Are clivia poisonous to dogs?

Clivias are poisonous to dogs. All parts of the clivia plant, including the leaves, bulbs, berries, and seeds, contain lycorine and other alkaloids that can be toxic if ingested.
