My Clivia is growing well, but why doesn't it bloom?

This is because there is no high temperature difference when flower buds differentiate. The flower bud differentiation of Clivia requires a temperature difference of about 10℃ and sufficient fertilizer and water, and the temperature is between 12-26℃, which can last for one month.

You can also refer to the maintenance and management methods of Clivia for one year:

First, spring: avoid the wind.

In early spring, after hibernation, the root system of Clivia began to recover. Due to the lack of nutrient supply, once the wind blows and the sun shines, the leaves will be dehydrated, the brightness, hardness and thickness will be reduced, and even yellow leaves and rotten leaves will appear in severe cases. Therefore, we should pay more attention at this time: Clivia is drought-tolerant and not wet-tolerant, and potted plants can generally remain moist, and it is easy to rot roots if watered too much. Don't spray water before the arrow blooms. Apply fully decomposed liquid fertilizer once a week or half a month, but in line with the principle of "thin fertilizer and diligent application", avoid applying thick fertilizer or raw fertilizer to avoid burning leaves and root rot.

Second, summer: avoid the sun.

Clivia is not strict about light. She likes semi-shade and is afraid of direct light. Because of the high air temperature and soil temperature in summer, it is easy to make the root system disorder and absorb nutrients unevenly, leading to neck pulling and leaf jumping. In addition, due to the strong sunlight, transpiration is greatly increased. If you don't water it properly, the leaves will get old, yellow and even wither. Therefore, the requirements for feeding in midsummer are:

It is best to put potted plants in a shade shed or shady place for shading, and avoid direct sunlight at noon.

Potted plants should be kept in a cool and ventilated place, but also sprayed with water frequently to cool down. The temperature should be controlled below 25℃ and the environmental humidity should be controlled at 60 ~ 70%.

Lose weight Clivia at 25℃, you should lose weight properly or stop fertilizing. Excessive fertilization will burn the fleshy roots.

When the soil in the watering basin is half dry, water it, but water it thoroughly. Never let the water drop into the leaves, lest you get a rotten heart disease.

Third, autumn: avoid rain and water spray.

In autumn, the climate is getting colder and colder. In the days of continuous autumn rain, adult Clivia has more opportunities to cut, sow and plant arrows. If it rains or is watered too much at this time, it will lead to rotten roots, rotten arrows and rotten hearts.

Therefore, when the arrow flowers are in full bloom, don't spray water. Every half month or so, fertilize the rotten cakes (1: 3). When watering, prevent water from soaking into the center of leaves, and don't let rain drench the leaves to avoid rotten cores. If it is serious, the whole plant will rot.

Fourth, winter: avoid low temperature drying.

When Clivia is at a low temperature below 5℃ in winter, it is necessary to keep the humidity of the basin soil at about 70% to avoid freezing due to drying. If the water content is lower than 20%, it is easy to freeze to death.

Before the first frost, the plants should be placed in a sunny place indoors, pay attention to antifreeze and keep warm, and rotate for about half a month according to 180 to make the leaves grow neatly and beautifully.

When the indoor temperature is 6 ~ 7℃ in winter, it can safely overwinter. Fermented cake fertilizer should be applied once a month, and liquid fertilizer should be poured once every 10 day (nitrogen fertilizer should not be applied more). Three months before flowering, liquid fertilizer mainly containing phosphorus and potassium fertilizer was applied to promote its flowering.

In winter, Clivia enters the dormant period, and the water evaporation is relatively reduced, so the basin soil can be kept moist, but it should be kept dry. Don't always cut off water, accumulate water or pour half the water. Otherwise, it will cause the leaves to scorch or the roots to rot.

Clivia should be sprayed with clear water frequently in the maintenance throughout the year, and it is best to dry it with a fine cloth after spraying, which can not only increase the smoothness of leaves, but also improve the ornamental value.
