Clivia

It’s blooming! Emily Hoover gave me an offshoot of one of her huge Kaffir lilies several years ago. Slowly and steadily, it has grown to be about a foot tall and wide. It is so easy to take care of and is really tolerant of low light conditions. This one is flowering in a North facing window. I did give it some organic fertilizer, Dr. Earth Liquid Solution, which seems to prompt any house plant to bloom.
