I bought this clivia at a North GA nursery a couple of years ago. It was simply marked "yellow clivia". It was tiny when I bought it, but I couldn't pass up on the nine dollar price tag. This is the first time it has set buds..
Yellow Blooming For First Time
Here's another pic.
Yay! congratulations!
Way to go!!!
My yellows have never bloomed. Way to go!
Yellow clivia buds are starting to open up now..
Close up... Maybe they will all be fully open in a couple of days.
Finally..
Beautiful, the color is nice..
It certainly is.
Gorgeous! Luv the stripe effect.
Beautiful!!
Just the prettiest thing ever. Love it.
Has been in full bloom for over a week now..
I may repot it after it finishes blooming, it is really rootbound. I think the cold room I kept it in over the winter helped it set buds.. I keep it outside under one of the shade trees all summer.
It sure luvs yah!
They are easy to pollinate if you want seeds, just mush the pollen around a bit.
Oh My goodness, that is BEAUTIFUL!
RrrrGrrr,
Cllivia bloom best when pot bound.
I didn't know that, thanks for the tip.. There isn't much soil left in the pot, the surface has so many roots that it looks like a pile of spaghetti.
You could prune the roots slightly and add more soil.
