These are beautiful, Lots of buds on that 
I don't see these to often in the stores around here but when I do .... They're always covered with mealies, so I leave them there.
How are you growing this one? |

Just regular potting soil, on a window sill. Does not get as much sun in the summer time (due to position of sun) as it does in the winter. I try to give it cold nights and warmer days.

Looking good Tindo .. it could have been that it was never mature enough to bloom . It takes 12 to 14 leaves to mature. I hope the one I gave you gives you a show of flowers, also You might have a yellow flowered one there .. it's a nice change from the usual oranges.
Gloria - If you are interested in a clivia .. send me a PM .. |
