Hi, I have grown these for many years from one my mom gave me.. (Orange Clivia Miniata) I have tried planting them in the ground.. and have to say that they MIGHT come back. I have 2 now that I planted in the ground last fall, and I can see the tops, but not sure if they will come back after the cold hard winter we had. I have found that even in pots, they will die back below 38 degrees. I keep mine in the greenhouse at the cooler end. They do like some cooler weather in the winter time. I mostly keep mine in pots.
Hope this helps.
