Our Ongoing Collaboration With Black ’n White Visual Media: Bringing Clivia Education to Life
At Utopia Clivias, education has always been at the heart of what we do. Over the past year, we’ve taken this passion to a new level through a rewarding collaboration with Black ’n White Visual Media, a partnership dedicated to creating high-quality, informative videos that share our knowledge of growing and caring for Clivias.
A Year of Creative Growth
Together, we’ve produced more than 15 educational videosin 2025, each designed to guide Clivia enthusiasts — from beginners to seasoned growers — through essential aspects of Clivia cultivation. These videos cover a wide range of topics, including:
How we create our top soil mixes
Step-by-step guidance on planting Clivia seeds
Practical lessons in pollination techniques
Deep dives into growing interspecific Clivias
Showcases of the different Clivia species flowering across our properties
This expanding library of content has become a valuable resource for growers locally and internationally, helping to promote proper Clivia care and inspire confidence in every stage of cultivation.
A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Our Filming Journey
From the very first planning session to the final edit, working with Black’n White Visual Media has been a smooth, professional, and highly creative experience. Their team brings enthusiasm, expertise, and strong visual storytelling to every shoot.
Filming took place across both of our Utopia Clivias properties, each offering unique environments that perfectly showcased our plants in various stages of growth. Behind the scenes, every shoot was filled with excitement, anticipation, and plenty of humour, especially during the inevitable bloopers — a reminder that creating educational content can be as joyful as it is informative.
A Partnership Built for the Future
What began as a video project soon evolved into a true creative partnership. Our shared passion for producing high-quality, accessible Clivia content has strengthened our mission to educate growers around the world.
We are excited to share that many more videos are already in the planning stages, and we will continue our creative journey with Africa and his talented team at Black ’n White Visual Media. Together, we look forward to expanding our collection of educational resources while showcasing the beauty and depth of the Clivia world.
