It’s
marvellous to have plants in your garden that just flower
year after year with almost no maintenance - one such plant
is the Clivea.
Cliveas are beautiful plants with lush green straplike leaves
all year round. But when they come into flower, they show
off stunning displays of burnt orange to cream flowers that
look absolutely magnificent.
POSITION & SOIL
In the garden, Cliveas are extremely easy plants to grow.
They just need the right conditions.
Cliveas love shaded areas and do very well below trees and
under large shrubs. They love a well drained soil, so when
planting, dig in Searles® Real Compost.
WATERING
One great aspect of Cliveas is that they don’t need much
watering. Cliveas will actually grow very well in dry conditions,
but some watering will produce their best growth and flowers.
A good deep soak once a week will be sufficient for brilliant
colour & growth.
FERTILISING
To keep them a lovely deep green & really bring on spectacular
flowering, fertilise regularly with Searles Flourish® Soluble
Plant Food.
As cliveas grow, the slowly multiply into numerous plants.
They can be easily dug up and divided and then replanted into
similar areas within the garden. Cliveas truly are easy plants
to grow and look magnificent when in flower. |

So
remember, for spectacular Clivea flowers

• And fertilise with Searles Flourish® Soluble Plant

If
you do this, you will be delighted with their spectacular
flowers year after year.
Happy Gardening with Searles from the Searle family.
