About

The Melbourne Clivia Group was established in 2008 by a group of enthusiasts and has grown from strength-to-strength since that time. You can read more information on the formation of the group, and other Australian groups in the article, The beginnings of a Clivia Club written by Helen Marriott.

Statement of purpose

The meetings consist of a speaker, display, sales, raffle and supper. Visitors are always welcome. View our calendar of meeting dates and times for the remainder of the year.

In September we host a CLIVIA EXPO which is a magnificent display of flowering plants, along with sales, demonstrations, raffles, People’s Choice Award and refreshments.
