Default Plants growing outside

Hi, just showing you a couple of plants growing outside. One orchid and one Clivia but both growing well where they are:

Dendrobium kingianum just under a pergola with sometimes full sun and sometimes shade, grows alongside the Tasmanian Tree Ferns, freezing to hot. This plant can take it all.






Yellow Clivia, in a sheltered spot and gets a bit chewed but otherwise happy, might have to repot it this year:

Beautiful plants! Does the roof cover the entire pergola? What variety is your yellow Clivia? I have a Salome yellow that looks very similar.

Cheers.
Jim

Not sure what the yellow Clivia is, I did buy it from a breeder and I'll check for a label on it.

Most of the roof is covered with Sheeting but the way the plant hangs is the roof slopes down and water runs through shade cloth onto the plant when it rains. Even on freezing nights.
