The strappy leaves are still visually interesting.<br \/>\nClivia produce offsets or sucker for propagation.<br \/>\nPollinated flowers produce a cherry sized, green berry which slowly turns red.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Kaffir lily in the Temperate House by Kew on Flickr, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kewonflickr\/7073645367\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7260\/7073645367_0483939dca.jpg\" alt=\"Kaffir lily in the Temperate House\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Credits<\/strong><br \/>\nSchizostylis by kfjmiller CC BY-NC-ND 2.0<br \/>\nKaffir lily (yellow form) by Kew and Kaffir lily in the Temperate House by Kew CC BY-NC-SA 2.0<br \/>\nKaffir Lily by Chris Coomber CC BY-NC-ND 2.0 Schizostylis coccinea &#8211; An autumn flowering bulb which just gets better year on year.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Kaffir Lily by Chris Coomber, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/21212056@N06\/4043287381\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2728\/4043287381_fff1ba7e2c.jpg\" alt=\"Kaffir Lily\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kaffir lily is a name attached to several species including Schizostylis and Clivia miniata.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-flowers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12829"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12829\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardenerstips.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
