Methods for extending the clivia's flowering period in winter:

1. Temperature: The clivia likes a semi-shaded environment, but in winter it still needs to keep sufficient sunlight to grow and bloom better. If the temperature is below 5°C, it will stop growing, so move it indoors when the temperature is low.

2. Light: In winter, the clivia needs sufficient sunlight, as this helps better extend its flowering period. After blooming, avoid strong light and keep the room ventilated.

3. Fertilizing: Winter is a period of vigorous growth for the clivia, so fertilizing must keep up. Before bringing the flower pot indoors, use bone meal, fried sesame, cooked soybeans, etc., or Xin Gaozhi Mo (new high-fat film), and water it once every 15 to 20 days; you can also water the roots with a soaking liquid of animal and plant residues, but be careful not to apply too much or too concentrated fertilizer, otherwise it is easy to cause fertilizer burn.

4. Disease control: The main diseases of the clivia are leaf spot, leaf blight, and stem rot. As long as targeted medicines are used for prevention and control, the diseases can be effectively prevented and controlled.
