I have only a few houseplants, since we had a salt water well in VA. I did manage to keep 2 huge and very old (from 1980) orange clivias alive. They haven't bloomed for me though since
1995, when we moved to the coast. I am hopeful that this will be their year to return! I also have a yellow clivia and a giant antique jade plant that I inherited from my mom. When we had our house on the market the listing agent asked for more plants so I bought those stupid bowls with 6 tropicals in them, and of course they refuse to die!
