I inherited this from my mother, and have no idea what it is. Any idea,
anyone?

It would be nice to know what care it's meant to be getting, though this
is
the second year it has flowered so it can't be too unhappy...


As others have said it's a Clivia miniata, easy to grow, don't overwater,
let it get potbound for the best flowering, will gradually increase in size
and make a superb specimen plant. You can split them up remembering they
like to be potbound and grow more from the seeds they produce.
Mine are kept in our tiny little N. facing greenhouse and the original one
is now rather heavy to move. Gh is kept at min 50°F over winter and I hardly
water it then.
Lovely plants, every conservatory should have one.
