So pretty, and a lovely colour.
ReplyDeleteIt is Jo you can get them in other colours but I've only seem photos of them,
DeleteWow! You really do have green fingers:)
ReplyDeleteI can't take the credit sweffling as the plant was given ti me by Roger The No Dig Gardener back in September.
DeleteOh yes you can Sue. It was a fairly pathetic thing when it came to you. I seem to remember that you did a post when it tried to jump out of its pot to escape from your clutches! It new what work it had to do!
DeleteIt's currently in a south facing window, Roger which I guess will be too hot for it in summer.
DeleteShould it spend summer in the greenhouse?
A great result. Is Clivia related to Agapanthus, I wonder? The plant structure looks similar.
ReplyDeleteClivias are in the same family as amaryllis ot hippeastrums Amaryllaceae and agapanthus are in the lily family Liliaceae, Mark but I agree they look very similar, Maybe there are connections higher up the family tree.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, they are so exotic looking, and your stems are nice and compact too, sometimes that kind of thing sends up three foot flower spikes and it all gets a bit unwieldy.
ReplyDeleteThey seem ti grow taller as the flower ages CJ but are still not tall and floppy.
DeleteOh wow! How beautiful and graceful, I bet it lights the room up on these cold December days.xxx
ReplyDeleteIt certainly cheers up the windowsill, Dina
DeleteNow, that is eye catching Sue - Congratulations on growing it on so well :-D
ReplyDeleteThank you Shirley - the challenge is to get it ti flower again next year something I fail to do with my orchids,
