Clivia mainly to view flowers, but sometimes to bloom season, flowers do not bloom out, appear "clip arrow" phenomenon. The main reasons for this are as follows:

1, the temperature is not suitable for Clivia flowering suitable temperature is 15-25℃, the temperature difference between day and night to about 10℃ is appropriate; temperature more than 25℃, affecting the arrow, lower than 15℃ is not conducive to the arrow.

2, nutrient deficiency Clivia flowering period of phosphorus, potassium needs more, if too much nitrogen fertilizer and lack of phosphorus, potassium and trace elements at this time, it will affect the arrow flowering, even if you can draw arrows, but also often easy to be caught by the leaves.

3, lack of water Clivia shoot stage, water demand is more, such as insufficient water supply at this time, there will also be arrow phenomenon.

In addition, dry air, too strong light, small temperature difference between day and night and other factors will also affect the normal shooting of Clivia.

In order to prevent Clivia "arrow clip," basin soil should be replaced once a year, basin soil to forest humus is better.

The principle of watering is to irrigate frequently, irrigate less, irrigate thoroughly without leakage, add proper amount of liquid fertilizer every time watering, irrigate flowers with warm water of about 25℃ is appropriate, increase the fertilizer amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer appropriately in the early stage of flowering, so as to promote Clivia to flower normally.
