Eupatorium adenophorum is small in plant type, compact in leaf layer, small and exquisite; The veins are prominent and the texture is neat; The leaves are bright and have the feeling of transparent wax film; High temperature tolerance, normal growth at 40℃, suitable for cultivation in southern tropical areas. The flower arrow of the sparrow orchid is very short, which is generally difficult to see. Because of its long flower stalk, it can bloom, set fruit and set seeds normally. However, because the flower arrow is attached to the growing point, no new leaves regenerate after flowering. At this time, many axillary buds can grow around the plant, which can be used for reproduction.

The leaf length is 20 cm, the aspect ratio is about 1∶2, and the leaf thickness is 3 mm. The leaves are round, compact, thick and straight, with orange flowers and beautiful plant shape.

Clivia Anshan has strong adaptability and high temperature resistance, and can grow at about 38℃. It solves the problem that the old varieties are not suitable in the history of orchid cultivation in the southern tropical region. Especially in summer, there is no dormancy period, and it can bloom about 1 year earlier than the old variety, adding new members to Clivia China.
