Yeah, unfortunately, they are hardy in the ground, in z9b and up. I wonder though, if it could be winter protected. However, if in the ground, in a lower zone, it might not get the necessary "dry period", (as winters are often wet,, in most of the country) the plant seems to need.
Is there a reason for moving the plant from one seemingly indoor place to another, rather than it going directly outside? Clivias are remarkably pest-free, or at least don't seem to get badly affected with any particular insect ,from outdoors, unlike many other plants.
Fred, I appreciate you discussing the Clivia, because no one else seems to discuss more than just a handful of subtropical, or tropical plant types.
