Clivia x cyrtanthiflora (Hybrid Clivia) - This evergreen perennial is the result of crossing 2 species of Clivia, Clivia miniata and C. noblis. It has strap-like foliage to about 2 feet tall with clusters of orange flowers that dangle down on stalks that rise just above foliage. Flowering can occur nearly in any month of the year. Plant in near frostless and shaded areas of your garden or grow indoors in containers. We have found this plant is hardy to temperatures down to 26 degrees F. Our plants from propagation stock originally provided by Ilie Gaceu of the Strybing Arboretum.
The information on this page is based on our research that has been conducted on this plant in our nursery library, from online sources, and from observations made of the crops growing in the nursery, plants in the nursery's garden and those in other gardens where we have observed it. We also have incorporated comments received from others and welcome getting feedback from those who may have additional information, particularly if this information includes cultural information that would aid others in growing Clivia x cyrtanthiflora. |
