Very Interesting indeed John. With due respect to the person who coined the name, we did have a somewhat heated debate on what an Oz nobilis should look like...
Hi Chris and All The question of whether or not Oz nobillis has species nobilis 'blood' may be answered by checking the ripe berries. Nobilis has a red...
Thanks to Connie and James for posting the image of the nobilis fruits. "Oz nobilis" obviously has true nobilis blood. The image taken in Melbourne Botanical...
HI All, Happy Holidays. Has anyone corelated the intensity of the colour of the base of the seedling to the colour of the eventual colour of flower? i.e redder...
Thank you James & Connie for this enlightenment. If this holds true for all (sorry, but being an ignorant research person I sometimes have to wonder), will be...
Hello Dr. Rashid, There are different theories about pigment in the base of a Clivia. One of course is the darker the pigment the darker the flower. One...

Hi Chris As far as we have observed, miniata, gardenii, caulescens and robusta all have translucent endocarps, with only nobilis being red. 99.9%+ of primary ...
Hi All, As it is the "quiet" season for Clivia, let me ask a question that I am sure has crossed many people's mind before. What is the difference between...

I agree with Ken, but there is another form of variegation that I have seen coming from Europe and referred to as "striation" where the variegation pattern is...

I think the majority is of the opinion that striation is a form of variegation and I tend to agree with that for the simple fact that a batch of seedlings from...
Usually variegation results from a mutation in a chloroplast gene The first result is usualy a striped or striated plant with mutated chloroplast irregularly...
I also am interested in the difference between 'striation' and 'variegation'. I am attaching a picture of a cyrtanthiflora seedling I have that I think could...

Anything with a change of colour in its leaf is 'variegated'. I believe the first was registered 100 or more years ago as 'Striata'. Logical because the...
