History/Philosophy: Wally Lane has been growing rare and exotic plants for 43 years. He is known around the world for his work propagating clivia, plants grown for their beauty, form and fruit. When Wally started, there was no such thing as a yellow clivia. He has spent many years producing a yellow flower suitable for a potted house plant. He has succeeded in improving the size of the flower, increasing its yellowness, and improving its fragrance.
