Clivia; should I cut old flower spikes?

[Diane56Victor]

Thank you, glad to help.
Yes. Kirstenbosch Garden has wonderful displays, and they were most helpful when I had a question, ended up emailing one of their gardeners.
A lot of my plants were sourced from South African clivia growers as seeds.

I hope you let us know how this plant goes.

Of course I will.

Right now I'm trying to figure out how to give it a winter rest. This house is new to me and the cellar is actually rather warm, only getting down to 18 or 19. It is lit by a SSE facing window (northern hemisphere). Outside the night time lows are 7-10 degrees but by the end of the month they may be getting to 0. November and December will likely be too cold outside but maybe by then the cellar will be a bit cooler too. Anyhow, whatever happens I'll share it come early spring.
