Clivia - Clivia

Japanese: クンシラン(君子蘭) - クンシラン

An evergreen perennial plant of the Amaryllidaceae family native to the Cape region of South Africa. From June to July, 20 to 30 flowers bloom in clusters at the top of a flower stalk about 40 cm long that emerges from between the leaves. The flowers are slightly drooping and tubular, and the orange-red tepals do not open normally. The plant commonly cultivated today under the name of "clivia" is a different species, Ukezaki Clivia (also known as Hanaran), which is close to the above-mentioned species, and the original species is native to the Natal region of South Africa. From May to June, each flower stalk produces 10 to 20 funnel-shaped, yellow-orange to red-orange flowers that open normally. They are potted and used for cut flowers, and improved varieties are also available. Both species should be placed in a frame during the winter and care should be taken not to freeze them. They are propagated by division and seedlings.
