Kelly | Clivia Bush Lily

Meet Kelly, the Bush Lily.

Kelly has found her favorite spot, settled in, and would appreciate it if everyone stopped suggesting she move. She believes a comfortable home, gentle light, and a little breathing room can solve most problems. Your sudden urge to rearrange the entire living room is not one of them.

She’s quietly confident, fond of familiar routines, and perfectly capable of enjoying her own company. Check in on her, certainly. Hover with a watering can? Absolutely not. Kelly knows the difference between being loved and being fussed over.

In winter, she takes her quiet time seriously. A cooler corner, fewer drinks, and a peaceful spell are her idea of getting ready for the next season. She is resting, thank you. She does not need a project.

And when she’s ready to bloom, those brilliant orange flowers make quite an entrance. For someone who spends so much time insisting she doesn’t need attention, she certainly knows what to do with it.

“I said I wanted some peace. I didn’t say you couldn’t admire me.”

This live plant features stunning bright orange flowers and lush green foliage, making it a perfect addition to your indoor or outdoor garden. Delivered as a well-rooted, 1-4 year old plant, it is ready to thrive in your space and bring a splash of color and elegance to your environment.

• Bright orange flowers that bloom in clusters
• Easy to care for and perfect for beginners
• Well-rooted plant ready for immediate planting
• Ideal for indoor, outdoor, or patio settings
• Attracts pollinators and enhances garden aesthetic

Scientific Name: Clivia miniata

Water: Let the surface of the soil dry slightly between waterings, then water thoroughly and drain. Never leave her sitting in water.

Blooming: Flowers are seasonal and depend on maturity and growing conditions. She may arrive without blooms.
