Stem clivia (Clivia caulescens)

Stem clivia

Stem clivia is a perennial flowering plant notable for its long, arching leaves and tall stems that support clusters of pendulous, tubular flowers, typically in shades of orange or red. These blossoms emerge in late winter to spring, adding vibrant color to shaded woodland areas where this plant thrives. A lack of a visible stem and its preference for dappled light reflect stem clivia's adaptation to understory growth.
