How many years does it take for Clivia to bloom?

1. How many years do you need to raise it?

It usually takes 3-5 years for Clivia to bloom. Specifically, it will only bloom when it has about 14 leaves, and it needs to grow at least 12 leaves. It is different from other plants. It will not bloom if it is well maintained. If it has too few leaves, it will not bloom.

2. How to grow it to bloom

1. Adequate light: It can only bloom better if it is given sufficient light during its growth period. If there is not enough light at normal times, it cannot carry out photosynthesis. However, shade should be provided in summer to avoid burning the leaves of the plant.

2. Suitable temperature: Clivia prefers a relatively warm environment. If the temperature is too low, it will be difficult for it to bud. In winter or at night when the temperature is high, it is important to keep warm.

3. Water in moderation: Do not water too much at normal times, 1-2 times a week is enough. If you water too frequently or too much, its roots can easily rot.

4. Sufficient nutrients: If you want it to bloom, you must give it enough nutrients, but don’t apply too much nitrogen fertilizer. If you apply too much nitrogen fertilizer, it will only grow leaves but no flowers. During the maintenance process, when the leaves grow to about 10 pieces, you should apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers.
