I am on the hop at present...due to go look after my little grandson for a few days, but wanted to tell you I think the plant is a Clivia.
Plant Profile: Clivia
Traits: , Shade, Feature, Groundcover, Container, , Birds
This
genus in the amaryllis (Amaryllidaceae) family is made up of just 4
species of perennials from southern Africa. While these plants are best
suited to warmer conditions, and can tolerate only the lightest of
frosts, they can be enjoyed as container plants in cooler climates. The
stunning flowers come in vibrant shades of red, yellow, and orange, and
are followed by equally vibrant and showy berries, which extend the
ornamental season of these plants. The genus was named for Lady
Charlotte Clive, Duchess of Northumberland, who was the granddaughter
of Robert Clive of India (general and colonial administrator).
Flowering Season: Summer, Spring
Appearance
These
clump-forming plants grow from stocky rhizomes, and have long, bright
green, strap-like leaves. Most bloom in spring, but flowering times do
vary, depending on the speciesClivia gardenii, for instance, blooms
from autumn to spring, bringing welcome color to the winter garden.
They produce strong flower stems that are topped with heads of large
funnel-shaped flowers in vibrant hues of yellow, orange, and red.
Attractive bright red berries follow the flowers.
Cultivation
Fire
lilies will tolerate only the lightest of frost, but otherwise they are
easily grown. These plants make superb greenhouse container specimens,
and can be enjoyed as indoor pot plants in cooler climates. Outdoors
they will do best if grown in fertile well-drained soil in a position
that provides dappled shade. Water well during the warmer months and
allow to dry off for winter. They are usually propagated by division.
