One cut on a clivia and one pot becomes ten, saving you quite a bit of money

Clivia leaves are green and glossy, and they look absolutely gorgeous grown at home. Want to turn 1 pot of clivia into 10 pots? How do you do it?

1. Wait until the new shoots grow 3-5 leaves

When a clivia grows well, it sends up small plantlets. Wait until the plantlets grow 3-5 leaves and the temperature is no lower than 15°C, then divide them.

2. Take the clivia out of its pot and remove the soil

Do not water the clivia for 2-3 days in advance, then take it out of the pot and remove the soil. The soil will not be too wet, making it easier to handle. Carefully brush the soil off the roots with your hands so the root system is clearly exposed.

3. Trim the roots and cut off the new shoots with their roots

After the soil is cleaned off, cut away the old roots and rotten roots, then use a knife to cut off the new shoots together with their roots. The more robust the new shoots' roots, the better!

4. Soak in a carbendazim solution

Put the clivia plants into a carbendazim solution, soak for 20 minutes, then take them out and let them dry in a cool, ventilated place.

5. Prepare loose, breathable soil

Put crushed bricks and tiles or tree bark at the bottom of the flower pot to improve drainage and breathability, then add pine needle soil.

6. Pot the clivia

Plant the clivia plants separately into flower pots, water them thoroughly once, then leave them in a cool, ventilated place for half a month, and that's it. Turning 1 pot of clivia into 10 pots is just that simple!
