Amaryllis on living room table 02-02-2013 001

I like that mainly white one with the red stripes, bit like a raspberry ripple!

I'll have to register it with that name! Thanks for the suggestion!

The two buds you can see opening are fully open today & they are magnificent!!! :-))

I think the colours are gorgeous.

So do I! :-))

Well worth growing! My friend's amaryllis that I asked you about a while ago now has a bud ......many thanks to you !

I hope she enjoys the flower very much & that she keeps the plant for many years! They increase year on year, rather like Daffs! Some are more prolific than others & most of my pots have several bulbs in them now as I've not taken out the "youngsters"!

She is delighted and can't believe how quickly the bud has appeared.
Thank you again

Once they get a little water, warmth & light they take off! Though I can't take any credit for the bud this year! That was formed inside the bulb last year - if she gets it to flower following my advice next year then I will be able to take a little of the credit! LOL!

Really, they are as easy to grow as Daffodils!

well we are giving you the credit anyway ~ thank you!
