Gail, clivia seeds came from Ken Smith-Australia and Nick Primich-South Africa. In 2000, I had posted either here or on Gardenweb.com that I was looking to grow clivia from seed. These two gentlemen were very generous and sent me seeds. I lost the tags on the four plants I have out of all the seeds, so don't know which is which. Some were supposed to be yellow or apricot. Two of them are still in pots and the other two I put in the ground. That was a mistake. They don't like our sun at all. The ones in the ground are doing poorly and as soon as I get back from GD's wedding, I'm going to put them back into pots and in full shade like the other ones.
Here's a picture of the first bloom this year on this one. The flowers were few and much lighter in color.
