Hi Cathie,
I am so sorry to be so long in getting back to you, but I’m a senior citizen trying to answer hundreds of questions and my health hasn’t been that great.
Keep a Clivia Plant root-bound in a small pot to help it bloom more often. It is also important to give a Clivia Plant a rest. A Clivia is a bulb plant that needs to rest for several months during the winter. Move your Clivia Plant to a cool (55 degrees), dark spot in November and water only when the soil dries out. In March move your Clivia back to a warmer (65 degrees), brighter location.

Hindu Rope plants are slow growing Succulent Plants that take several years to produce clusters of star-shaped waxy flowers on long vines. These plants bloom in late spring & early summer when given proper light, water, and fertilizer. Do not remove the leafless spurs or stubs (peduncles) that appear on Hindu Rope Plants.; flowers grow on these. After flowering, do not remove the dead flowers or the peduncles. This is where new flowers emerge.
