Purchased from an online source about seven years ago, this plant has just come into its own the last couple of years. Unlike the dozens of April-blooming Clivia miniata clones I have, this plant blooms in July and has smaller tubular flowers of a bright red with green tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The leaves of this plant are narrow, strap-like and dark green. I got seeds off of it last year, but they did not germinate\u2013if it sets seed again, I\u2019ll be more careful in germinating them in the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
