Clivia likes the sun

Clivia does not like the sun very much. It is a shade-loving plant and generally cannot accept strong light exposure. It can grow without seeing the sun for a short period of time.

Clivia basking in the sun

Clivia needs sunlight. It is not afraid of the sun, but it is not recommended to be exposed to the sun for a long time. Generally, its branches and leaves will turn yellow if exposed to the sun for a long time, and it is also more susceptible to diseases and insects, so it cannot be exposed to the sun for too long.

Clivia lighting

Clivia does not require much light and can grow in a semi-shaded environment. It is generally not recommended to expose it to light for too long. It is enough to give it about 4 hours of light a day. This will not sunburn its branches and leaves and can ensure that it can grow and bloom normally.

What to do if Clivia wilts in the sun

If the Clivia is wilted due to the sun, you should first move it to a cool environment. Then wait for the soil to cool down completely and then water it. After the soil is completely moistened and ventilated for a few hours, it can generally resume normal growth.
