1. Suitable temperature

2. Other maintenance requirements

It likes a warm growing environment, and the most suitable temperature range is 15-25 degrees Celsius. When the temperature exceeds 30 degrees Celsius in summer, the plant will enter a semi-dormant stage. When the temperature drops below 8 degrees Celsius, plants will stop growing, and freeze damage will occur below 6 degrees Celsius. It is also necessary to provide diffuse light, apply water and fertilizer normally, and change the potting soil once a year.

1. Suitable temperature

Clivia likes a warm growth environment and cannot tolerate heat and cold. The most suitable temperature range is 15-25 degrees Celsius, maintaining a certain temperature difference between day and night, about 8-12 A temperature difference of degrees Celsius is optimal for growth. When the summer temperature exceeds 30 degrees Celsius, the plants will have difficulty adapting and enter the semi-dormant stage. They need to cool down and pay more attention to ventilation. It is also difficult to adapt to the cold winter and needs to be moved indoors for maintenance. If the temperature drops below 8 degrees Celsius, the plant will stop growing. If it drops below 6 degrees Celsius, frost damage will occur and the leaf tips will turn yellow and necrotic.

2. Other maintenance requirements

1. Light: It can tolerate shade and coolness, so it is enough to provide bright scattered light normally. In summer, pay attention to shade and avoid exposure to the scorching sun. In winter, it can be exposed to more sunlight. Also pay attention to turning the flower pot every half month so that the plants receive even light.

2. Water and fertilizer: Apply water and fertilizer according to the growth of the plant. Apply once every 15-20 days during the peak period, so pay attention to the dosage.

3. Repot: The growth rate is relatively fast, so once Repot the flower pots once a year, preferably in spring and autumn, so that sufficient nutrients are available for growth. The soil in the new pots needs to be disinfected and sterilized before use.
