Amaryllis

 Two of my Amaryllis are blooming at this time. The Terra Cotta has 4 flowers and a second stalk with 4 more buds.




 


This was Amaryllis "Nymph" on Tuesday.....

...and here she is today.

I used to force my Amaryllis to go dormant every Autumn but after I found out that that step isn't necessary I no longer bother. I just treat them like any other house plant.

Yesterday (Saturday) we had the most beautiful weather. 20C with clear skies and warm sunshine. We spent as much time as possible outside. Today it is once more cloudy and although it rained around 6 A.M. by the time we went walking at 8 the rain had stopped. Heavy rain is in the forecast for the next 3 days. That will give me time to catch up on housework.

Thanks for visiting

  4. I've had the red ones, I always left them in the dirt. The second one you show is very beautiful, is it "double"? Well, I see that it has many petals.

  6. Those Amaryllis are beautiful! WOW! You must have a green thumb. We are expecting cooler temps and rain here by Tuesday. But I must admit, I do not hot weather. Just the humidity is hard for me. I hope your week is wonderful dear GM. Hugs and blessings, Cindy

  9. I am so envious of your Amaryllis. I love them but haven't had much success in getting them to rebloom. Both of yours are beautiful.
