    Hello I was trying to get some clivia cut from inlaws. The pot was ultra tight don't want to make a less. We tried a vertical knife cut in circular motion. All I got was leaves. Didn't want to make it worse
    Settled for a cutting what seemed seeds.
    Would the leaves throw roots of let's long enough?
    What's that oily colour seeping from them?
    How can I grow some from these seeds ? Do they need to be dried or not? Thanks for your knowledge.

    I know clivia in bc as an indoor plant that we grew in a large proper terra cotta plant pot (not glazed)

    possibly we put it out in the summer on sheltered patio (I think so)

    pretty peach orange flower - quite long-standing

    in Newport Beach So Calif my aunt grew it outside as a landscape filler in the courtyard

    Ok thank you. Yes it's for indoor an the original plant is indoor also. That's why I asked my questions :-)!
