<sigh>  I wish all my seedling bulbs would flower.  Maybe I can pretend that Clivia are bulbs -
they flower well for me.

What a fine selection, K D, but I would recommend using larger pots or at least, distribute your plants in several small pots.

I bougt the bulb as V. capensis maybe it is V. bracteata. Grown direct under the roof in full light.
This is a picture without -0,3 exposure compensation. If it is V. bracteata I wil change the label.
