Let us know your favourite clivia! 💮 And shout out if you like Costa's hat😉
I grew a yellow Clivea from seed but when it flowered it was orange?
My favourite clivia is red.Yes we like Costa's beautiful hat.😊
It’s actually pronounced Cliv-e-a as in the family name Clive. The first one was named for Charlotte Percy (née Clive) one of the governesses to the future Queen Victoria, later the Duchess of Northumberland.
Costa's beautiful and detailed hat deserves its own video! 😊
Eternal is a champion. What a strong willed man turning a stroke into a incredible passion. Cheers for sharing your story
Love clivias, so hardy and rewarding.
I love Clivias, beautiful flowers
Peter is as tough as the plants he creates...the mental health benefits of gardening are a lifesaver

Oh those GREENS! And the soft yellows. (And yes, love Costa's hat!) What is the purpose of putting the phosphoric acid in on the spag moss please? Do the seeds have germination inhibitor or something like iris seeds do? I feel Peter when he's saying that it is about healing and coming forward to make new stuff and recover, as well as how addictive it is once you get interested in one genus and everything else starts fascinating you!
Yes ! Could we have an explanation, about that phosporic acid, please ?
since 2005 they've just been everywhere, oversaturated ... always just thought of them as a gaudy orange agapanthus with less reliable flowering ... the red dwarf one I like
an Australian teaching a pronunciation (min 01.10), now that is funny! by the way, it doesn't matter where the name comes from, once it's a scientific name, it's latin and you should pronounce it in latin, not in "Australian". So, it's Cl-EE-vEE-A (like A in Around). A part of that, really nice story and amazing passion and collection
Clivias are natives plants from South Africa …. You forgot to mention that😅😅 not Australia
Nahhhh NOT this bloke.
