Add this to the clivia flower pot: the roots grow thick and the leaves shine as if oiled, growing 4 leaves a year
Clivia has the beautiful meaning of a gentleman's character, with a graceful plant shape, sword-like leaves, emerald green and glossy, often arranged symmetrically like a Thousand-Hand Guanyin, and bright, dignified and elegant flowers, making it truly an excellent choice for potted plants.
When growing clivia, root rot is the most common problem. Add this to the clivia's flower pot,the clivia roots grow thick without rotting, and the leaves shine as if oiled, and it can grow four leaves a year.
Using pine needles to grow clivia is very effective, because pine needles can regulate soil pH, making the soil acidic, and can also increase the soil's air permeability and drainage. Not only can they make the flowers grow vigorously with emerald green leaves, they can also prevent root rot, allowing the roots to breathe freely and grow sturdy.
Bone scraps: leftover pork bones, chicken bones and fish bones from meals, steamed in a pressure cooker for half an hour, air-dried, then fully crushed in a blender, placed in the sun for a few days, and after being thoroughly dried, mixed into the flower soil. They can provide nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium elements for the flowers, making them grow vigorously, with many benefits.
Therefore, when potting or repotting clivia, adding both pine needles and bone scraps to the soil can not only regulate the pH, making the soil acidic and increasing drainage, but also supplement nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium elements.
The roots instead do not rot, and grow thicker and thicker, so the leaves grow more and more emerald green, just like being oiled, and a few more leaves grow each year, improving the ornamental value.
Besides using pine needles together with bone scraps, you can also use pine needles with rapeseed fertilizer or pine needles with soybean cake fertilizer, all of which can play a very good role in supplementing nutrients and can also increase drainage, making the flower roots grow sturdy.
