watering
Natal lilies should be watered once every 7-10 days during the summer months, and every 10-14 days during the winter months. They should be watered thoroughly until water runs out of the drainage holes each time. The soil should be damp to the touch, but not overly wet. If the soil is overly wet, it can cause the plant to rot.

pruning
Natal lily (Clivia miniata) should be pruned every 6-12 months, and should be pruned slightly, removing no more than 1/3 of the plant’s total foliage. Pruning should be done in the spring or summer, after flowering has finished but before flowering starts for the following year. This will allow the plant to get the energy it needs for other activities, such as forming new flowers and foliage. Pruning should be done carefully to avoid damaging the plant, and any dead or dying foliage should be removed.
