2016 Clivia Show will captivate with vivid blooms on display at GardenShop FloraFarm

GardenShop FloraFarm will be transformed into a realm of clivia colour on Saturday, 10 to Sunday, 11 September 2016 from 9am to 11am, where crowds will gather to view a floral exhibition with over 50 varieties of the exquisite flowers.   

Commonly called South Africa’s bush lily, clivias are the most spectacular indigenous spring flowers and produce some of the most interesting shades of blooms with variations of apricot, cream, pale yellow, peach, and pink.  

During the showcase, Paul Kloeck of Clivia Kingdom will host a discussion on ‘Basic Clivia Care’ from 10am to 11am. The ‘king of clivias’, Kloeck is based in Curlews Valley near Nelspruit, which homes 20 000 clivias and is the ideal habitat due to the balance of soil, light and shade.  

Visitors to the Clivia Show can also interact with green industry partners Atlantic Fertilisers, Ball Straathoff and Protek, while learning about feeding, growing, planting and maintaining the flowers.  

Avid gardeners and plant growers are encouraged to make the most of the experience by stocking up on garden-related merchandise at the most competitive prices during operating hours: 8am to 5pm.  

To make an enquiry, contact Narisha Baignath at FloraFarm on 011 894 2377/8. Entry is free of charge.
