Clivia Conference September 2010
The 5th International Clivia Conference
Cape Town , South Africa
21st & 22nd September 2010
On behalf of the Clivia Society and the Cape Clivia Club, we would like to invite you to experience the world of the Clivia and meet with other Clivia enthusiasts in September 2010 at the 5th International Clivia Conference. This will be the highlight of our botanical calendar and a showcase for developments in our knowledge of the genus Clivia and the strides that we have made in its ennoblement and popularisation. A magnificent show will follow and complement the conference, which will be addressed by speakers from all over the Clivia world.
Show
Following the conference, the Cape Clivia Club Show will be held as a showcase of the Clivia Growers art where the very best of Clivia will be on display. In addition to the many plants on show, a wide variety of plants will be offered for sale by top growers. Start preparing your plants now!!!
Auction
An auction is planned as one of the highlights of Clivia 2010 where a selection of the best Clivias available will be up for grabs. Closer to the time, all the accepted plants will be illustrated on the website as the catalogue is finalised.
A number of pre- and post-conference tours have been planned to take the Clivia enthusiast around all the Clivia habitats in South Africa as well as visits to as many regional shows as possible in the areas. For many time is limited so we have tried to compress activities into the minimum period. The conference is timed for the normal flowering period of C. miniata, which starts in the north, followed by the east and then the south coast (from west to east). This has determined the timing of the regional shows so we have planned the habitat tours in between them. The show and tour program covers most of the Cape's scenic and botanic areas and is planned to be unforgettable.
We are offering you a Two-week program saturated with clivia activity…. Click here to read more.
Accommodation will be available in the homes of local enthusiasts or in B&Bs and hotels. We anticipate a keen interest in the proposed program, so if your are interested in participating please contact book your accommodation well in advance..
