Clivia Yellow Leaves: Soil, Light, and Watering Fixes

Clivia miniata with yellowing base leaves after repotting and schedule disruption likely suffers from wrong soil (too moisture-retentive) and/or too much afternoon sun.

Corrective Steps

1. Soil: Repot in very porous mix—bonsai soil or 50% chicken grit + 50% potting soil.
2. Light: Morning sun only; afternoon sun burns leaves. Ideal: outdoors under shade tree.
3. Water: Let dry slightly between waterings; never soggy.

Clivias bloom once yearly. They're expensive—worth the extra care.
