Clivia USA

Be prepared for a long wait for your goods from Cliviausa along with little to no customer service reply’s. I ordered two seedlings November 13th and still yet to see them ( they aren’t shipped yet when I was told they would ship yesterday but that fell through the cracks again. Giving another order a try to see how this company is before I give it the negative review. The vast selection of available product is great and they have everything under the sun which is very nice. Local to New England too so I’m happy about supporting local business

Posted on November 26, 2017, updated November 26, 2017 CAUTION WITH THIS VENDOR! I received a Clivia plant from these folks that did not resemble the picture (the leaf edges of a variegated specimen plant had been cut off with a scissor). I then received an email from a Jon Gilman explaining that the specimen that was sent to me had been burned due to over fertilization and if I was dissatisfied, I could have my money back if I requested it within 60 days. I was surprised that they would send out a plant in this condition. Nevertheless, I potted it and hoped for the best. Forty five days later, the plant still looked pretty sad. I wrote and requested the refund he had offered. I received a terse note talking about the proprietor's health problems, with a closing comment "we'll get to it when we get to it." The author's name was not on the note. Weird? Yeah, pretty much. Professional? Not in the least. Would I do Business with CliviaUSA again: Nope.

I ordered a Clivia seed from this company, and I am very happy with my experience. I've never tried growing Clivia from seed, but I followed their directions to the letter, and my seed is already germinating after only a week! This was a pre-order, so they helpfully gave the expected release date, followed by a heads-up when it shipped. The packing was good, with the seed sealed in a tiny bag and well-padded with bubble wrap.

This company offers decent prices for clivias of all types and colors. The plants are usually seedlings, at least mine were, but they have at least two leaves growing. They also have a Facebook site that allows one to seek answers from experienced growers to questions such as clivia cultivation, breeding, pest control, et al. I would definitely purchase clivias from CliviiaUSA in the future. I would rather purchase from these folks than from Ebay.

Just bought 2 slips from them. Arrived very well packed. Good root systems. Healthy leaves. They even sent me an extra yellow clivia! Very good service and will definitely buy from them again. Also helpful and informative web site.

I ordered clivia seed from this company. Good selection, fast shipping, helpful instructions, fat healthy seed and very good germination rate add up to an "A" rating.

Bought a few seedlings from this place. The seedlings were shipped quickly and appeared to be very healthy upon arrival. The owners of the store were good about accommodating a special request I had about shipping. I'd buy from this place again.

Cliviausa is a great company to shop at for clivias .I have done business with them since early 2011. They are always very helpfull with all my plant questions. I was amazed they responed so quickly to my E MAILS . The selection is huge and a price for every budget. Their plants and service are so good I dont need to look elsewhere.

Fun to buy here! Exciting choice of Clivia treasures I would never have found elsewhere. Healthy, well-germinating seeds. Very nice communication, quick, kind and useful free advice whenever needed. I have bought here repeatedly, never disappointed, and I will certainly continue to look in regularly. Highly recommended – thanks a lot!

I have ordered from CliviaUSA multiple times and have always been happy with the offsets, seedlings, and seeds I've received. Jon is always prompt and helpful with any questions I have for him about their plants. I'm sure I'll buy from them again and happily recommend them to others.

Posted on September 21, 2012, updated September 22, 2012 I purchased a "rooted offset" of 'Sunrise, Sunset' clivia from this company via ebay. Received a very small division with a single root. When I questioned the company, they said they had sent the wrong item, told me to return it, and they would send me the correct offset of Sunrise, Sunset plus refund my return shipping. So, I mailed it back. They contacted me and said they couldn't refund return shipping because "paypal was down" and offered me a 1 leaf clivia seedling in the color of my choice as an alternative to getting refund of return shipping, along with the original offset I'd bought. (OK, so red flags are going up here, as any reputable breeder knows, there is no guarantee of color in hybrid clivia seedlings that haven't flowered. Many are simply orange as with the standard C. miniata). I declined the offer of a one leaf seedling and opted for a refund of return shipping. Next thing I know, the company has refunded not only return shipping, but my original purchase price, and refused to send what I bought. No explanation was given for their refusal to ship despite my inquiry. I don't know what's going on with this company, but I would never consider dealing with them in the future.

Awesome! For many catalog items, the plant you see is the plant you will recieve (of course this excludes seeds and some hybrid seedlings but at least their size are described). My order was filled promptly and I received my plants exactly 1 week after I placed the order. Their condition was great when they arrived. Highly reccomended. Not to mention, the prices are very reasonable for such a niche vendor. I'm so thrilled with my order.
