Default Clivia minata - Finally

In my greenhouse in PA, I had clivias of all sorts doing very well. Since moving here to NC, the one large one I kept has grown "OK", but I haven't seen a flower in 4 years.

This last fall, it stayed out on the deck until it got into the upper 40's a bit, and POW!

Beautiful! I do really like the colors. Hope it will bloom on a regular schedule once more for you.

It is beautiful, Ray! I have been looking for some Clivias in my area but have found none. Does anybody know if they come in blue?

I've seen them only in yellow and orange. I also am searching for one.

Not yet! That would be a breeders dream!

The nearest thing to a blue clivia would be Agapanthus. They range in colour from white to deep purple and have a few different sizes too.
They do multiply quite readily too.
