Clivia


Okay, I know this isn't a knitting picture, but I did get the plant from my friend, MaryJo, who works at the Leonardtown shop. Isn't it beautiful - and it seems to thrive on my benign neglect. I took MaryJo's advice and poured whatever was left of whatever I was drinking in the pot. This particular Clivia has a fairly steady diet of iced tea, iced coffe, and the ocaisional sugar-free soda. Seems to like whatever it gets, because it rewards me with a regular clump of amazing orange blossoms that last for weeks and weeks. It's a beautiful plant even when it's not in bloom.
