Natal lily · Clivia miniata
Also known as: bush lily; Natal lily
Bush lily thrives with minimal attention, preferring well-draining soil and partial shade to replicate its natural forest floor habitat. Special care points include avoiding overwatering, which can lead to root rot, and providing a period of cooler temperatures in the winter to encourage spring blooming. With these considerations, bush lily is an easy-care plant suitable for gardeners of all levels.
To transplant bush lily ideally, choose the early spring when new growth begins, as this allows the plant to establish itself rapidly. Select a location with bright, indirect light and well-draining soil. Apply water generously after transplanting, but ensure no standing water in the pot.
