How to Handle Clivia Miniata After Flowering: Seed Saving vs. Non-Seed Saving
Clivia Miniata is a flowering plant native to the tropical regions of southern Africa. Due to its unique ornamental value, it has been introduced to China and is commonly cultivated as an indoor ornamental plant. For the cultivation of Clivia Miniata, handling it after flowering is crucial. Below, let's see how to deal with Clivia Miniata after flowering, as introduced by the Fortune Tree House.
Seed Saving Treatment
How to handle Clivia Miniata after flowering? There are two types of treatments after flowering, one of which is seed saving. For this, we need to pollinate the Clivia Miniata when it flowers. We need to transfer the pollen from the stamens to the pistils, and the stamens are the three-branched flower parts. After flowering, cut the flower spike and wait for the seeds to mature before harvesting them.
Non-Seed Saving Treatment
1. For non-seed saving, first, after the Clivia Miniata flowers, cut off the remaining flower spike and peduncle to reduce nutrient loss.
2. Timely replace the potting soil, which is a preparation for the Clivia Miniata to bloom the following year. After flowering, the nutrients in the soil are greatly depleted, so it needs sufficient nutrients.
3. Timely fertilization is also necessary due to the nutrient loss during the flowering period. We need to supplement fertilizers, aiming for better blooms the next year.
1. After the flowering period of Clivia Miniata, we need to ensure its growth, so it requires sufficient lighting conditions. Generally, placing it on a sunny balcony or window is sufficient.
2. Clivia Miniata's water requirement decreases after flowering, so we must be careful with the amount of watering. Do not overwater, and normally, keeping the potting soil moist is enough.
3. After flowering, Clivia Miniata's fertilizer requirement also decreases. The amount of fertilization should be reduced, and a lower concentration liquid fertilizer is chosen under normal conditions, following the principle of applying thin fertilizers frequently, and it is best to fertilize in the morning.
