Clivia

What should I do with this Clivia ?
It has been in a perspex shelter all winter because I forgot to bring it indoors.

 

Bin it? No you needn't do that! Remove all the old, dead leaves & repot it. It doesn't look dead to me so if you remove all the old compost & pot it up in some fresh I think it will be alright! You'll probably get some flowers as well!

Mine stayed on the balcony through all the -3C frosts we had in December '23 & January '24 though a few of the leaves died back (not as bad as yours though!). Perhaps it helped that they had had no water in at least 3 months.

I didn't repot mine though as I don't have any pots big or heavy enough to put them in - though I could have used the same pots again now that I think about it!

Let's know how they get on - if you decide to keep them that is!

My Amaryllis got a similar treatment the only difference being that they were dormant before the cold weather of December arrived.

Both Clivias & Amaryllis need 3 months of cold weather & being kept dry. Light doesn't seem to influence them as much as water & temps. They just need 3 months rest. Normally they shouldn't suffer frost but mine were very dry & well inside the balcony but without any other protection.

Some of the Amaryllis bulbs now have buds so I expect them to flower about Easter time.

Its probably still alive but will need a season to recover to anything looking decent.
I usually throw mine under the apple trees on the allotment for the summer and mostly forget about them, I left them out too long last year and they got caught by the December frosts, the one I saved is just showing flower buds this year now.

 

Thank you @Balc and @pete for your replies.
The Clivia is definitely alive and I never intended disposing of it. You can't see all of it in the photo, and the other half (partly visible) is as normal, but I'm wondering whether I should divide it and pot this affected shoot separately.
I think it looks like that because it is very damp in the shelter and there's little ventillation, unless I leave the doors open. It hasn't been watered so the compost is very dry.

 

If you want to divide it I'd wait until about April or May, I've always done any repotting after flowering.
Unless you can move it to warmer conditions I'd not water it just yet.

 

Being dry won't hurt them any further, you need to get rid of all that damaged foliage though.If the plants are a few years old they should flower. Mine flowered very quickly - much, much quicker than the Amaryllis which still have buds quite low down.
