Below are photos of my smallest clivia. It is so small that I only discovered it after 3 years in one of my shade houses. As you can see from the photos below, it is less than 4cm from leaf tip to leaf tip. It already has a type of base and is very slow growing. The leaves are thick and deformed. It will probably never flower, but might make offsets one day. That is if a leaf eating insect like a worm or locust does not discover it, because it can make a meal of it and finishes it off within a few hours. I photographed it with a normal size clivia flower so that you can form an idea how small it really is. I also compare it with the width of a clivia chart if you have one.
