Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Originating from crosses of Salmone's Clivia. Healthy Blooming size plants. This is a wonderful houseplant or shade-loving perennial for frost free areas. Don't expose to direct sunlight as this will burn their leaves! They have survived light frosts for me (next to the house) but they might not survive a hard freeze. Here in Arizona, zone 8 I've had them survive under a foot of snow, but they died down to the ground which is NOT good for them.
