Description
The "Yellow-Flowering Form" of Natal Lily (Clivia miniata) brings forth an exceptional splash of yellow blooms from Djilba to Kambarang (late winter to mid-spring). This perennial herb stands out with its evergreen foliage and bright flower clusters, making it a top pick for both garden beds and indoor containers. In garden settings, it can transform shady patches into vibrant focal points, while in homes, it becomes an elegant ornamental piece.
For in-ground planting in sandy terrains, using a premium soil conditioner is advisable to enhance soil quality. This cultivar thrives best in well-draining soil with partial to full shade cover. While watering needs are consistent, it's wise to slightly reduce during cooler phases. Its vigorous growth phase extends from Birak to Bunuru (mid-summer to early autumn); therefore, feeding with a general-purpose fertiliser in Kambarang is ideal to keep the plant at its prime.
