I guess this forum is a little slow at this time so I'll just use my common sense when transplanting the off shoots. I'm not sure what happened with the seeds. I potted them up and still no sign of them!

From what I've read, clivia are happy growing in clumps. I know that I've seen instructions in this forum for separating pups from the parent plant. I should do so with the potted clivia I have at the front door. If I find a link, I'll post it.

Thank you for the reply...I was beginning to think that this forum was in its dormant state! I think you are correct that they prefer to grow in clumps. Its just that they are so darn expensive to buy. I finally saw a little green coming from the seeds that I planted. It took awhile. Maybe I will have new plants one way or another! (And yes please post the link if you find it.)

Iris, if you do a search of this site you will find instructions for planting the seeds. I followed them, and it worked! Cute little babies. Also, on the dividing thing. I do it when I get around to it; maybe when there are 4 or 5 new guys in the pot and it's lookin' crowded. Nothing to it...

Thank you for info, Elvis. Actually after all this time my seeds are finally starting to grow! I have 4 that have germinated and have potted them up in small pots...just little green blades poking up but I think they will make it! I think I will overwinter them inside in my south facing laundry room. The mother plant is not in a pot. I planted it in the ground last year and covered it with burlap on our few frosty nights. It just burned a little on the edges of a few leaves but otherwise appears very healthy. It seems to like where I have it planted. The pups are growing close to the main plant. I may dig up one and try potting it up

Hi again, Iris. You'll probably want to dig up the whole thing to separate the new bulbs (yes, they are whole new bulbs down there!). Mine live in pots permanently, obviously, so separating them is very easy for me. I have only orange; if you'd ever consider a swap, i.e., 2 of mine for 1 of yours, LMK.

You may want to leave the offsets attached to the mother for a longer period of time as the mother feeds them and they grow much faster. Plus, this should ensure that there are enough roots to support the offset. Typically, the offset won't be of blooming age until it has 12 leaves.

I would separate them just after bloom with the thinking that they mother could recover well enough to produce the next season's bloom.

Clivias roots are pseudo bulbs and look like a group of white/tan earthworms.
