I think you may be asking about an Amaryllis - and you may well have one called 'Papilio'.

I have one of these, and like yours, it hasn't ever flowered - yet. The advice is to feed it and keep it going so that the bulb builds up its strength to produce flowers.

I am looking forward to mine flowering maybe next year!

I did a search on Google for Amaryllis Papilio. I found a lovely photo of it at this URL: http://www.amaryllis.com/product/92/

I had never seen this variety before & I fell in love with it at first site! My mouth just dropped open when I saw it & I could only say WOW!
