Clivia miniata 'Belgian Hybrid'

Common Name:
Belgian Hybrid Clivia

Description:
Clivia miniata 'Belgian Hybrid' is an evergreen perennial prized for its striking clusters of trumpet-shaped flowers, which bloom in vibrant shades of orange or yellow during late winter to early spring. The plant features dark green, arching, strap-like leaves that form a fan-shaped clump, providing a lush, tropical appearance. In Melbourne's climate, this clivia thrives in shaded garden beds or as a container specimen, making it a versatile choice for adding colour to low-light areas. Following the flowering period, ornamental red berries may develop, adding further interest to the plant's display.
