Many of you will remember Alan Searle who had a gardening show years back on ABC TV and radio.

This large orange Clivea was bread by him many years ago. As a young fellow out job gardening for pocket money in the 1970's I was lucky enough to be given two of these plants for my efforts... ... ... Getting rid of Wandering Jew. The two plants went into my parents garden, under a big old Turpentine. Today the clump is very large and magnificent when in full bloom. My mother has struck seeds, but these never have come true to kind.

This is not a very good photo of mine growing along our driveway.
