Clivia Miniata

I moved my clivias to permanent locations in the house. Since I bought them in late November last year, they have been sitting in the basement.

I found these plants at Craigslist and bought them from a guy who inherited the plant from his mother 10 years ago. He has taken good care of it and he was selling 7 offsets. I purchased 2 of them and one is large enough to bloom in the spring. For $15 a piece,they are a real bargain.

He called these plants Kaffir Lilies but their botanical name is Clivia Miniata. They produce orange flowers.
