Time to flowering!


Question
Hi!

I have several bulbs of Clivia miniata that a friend gave me, and since January I put them on a small tray with peat moss (each one of them) I want to know when will I be able to see the first flowers, I know it takes a long time to see them.

Thank you so much!!

Raquel :)

Answer
They normally take 4-5 months. I would expect you should see your first flowers sometime in mid-May. You can add a diluted application of a high phosphorus fertilizer to give them a boost. But even without it, they should bloom within the next few weeks.

Best regards,

Mike
