There are now 3 Amaryllis bulbs in flower on our living room table! The middle one is just deep red with no white in it. The buds had still not opened when I took the photo.

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments! :-)) I thought people might like to see them. These are grown from my own seeds & flowered for the first time 2 years ago. I had to wait 4 years before the first bulbs reached flowering size! I wrote about them in the first few blogs I wrote back in 2009.
