How to take care of the newly bought Clivia

1. Inspection

Generally, you should check it carefully after buying it. Especially when buying online, you should check carefully. The main thing is to check the growth status of its root system and see if there are any roots that are rotten or damaged by diseases and insects.

2. Processing

If the roots of the Clivia you purchased are not growing healthily, you will need to trim off the rotten and diseased roots and soak them in a potassium permanganate solution for five minutes. Only after disinfection and re-potting will it avoid infection. After disinfection, rinse it in clean water and then take it out and dry it. If you have charcoal powder or sulfur powder at home, you can apply some on the wound.

3. Put it in the basin

It is recommended to prepare a clean flower pot and put the disinfected soil into the pot. After that, use tools to dig a hole in the potting soil and plant it in, allowing its roots to fully combine with the potting soil.

4. Maintenance

After potting, it is recommended to place it in a semi-shaded place. Do not water it within three days. After three days, it will need to be sprayed with water appropriately. It will take about a week to half a month for it to adapt to the pot, and then you can carry out normal maintenance.
