Foliage Plants

Nick’s Clivias grows foliage plants for landscaping both indoor and outdoor locations to compliment our range of Clivias.

Varieties and uses

Plants such as ‘Malawi Magic’, also know as Zanzibar Gem or Zamioculcas zamiifolia, the Fiddle Leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata), Cordylines and a selection of Calatheas are available most of the year.

Foliage plants add colour with form to enhance living space of modern homes giving tropical feel to gardens and patios.  For ease of care and maintenance, Malawi Magic with its glossy thick green leaves requires only occassional water and fertilising to look stunning.  No wonder green displays in shopping centres make constant use of Zamioculcas zamiifolia!  Although unwise to plant fig varieties in gardens due to penetration of underground pipes etc, Fiddle Leaf Figs make safe, stunning pot displays for indoor or patio locations because of their broad ornamental leaves.  Calatheas and Cordylines find many uses in the garden and indoors but also make prominant displays as understory plantings and ‘fillers’ between feature plantings.
