amaryllis for Christmas...


It is actually going to bloom! 16 days ago, it was a brown, dried up bulb. Next year, I am taking a day by day photo. I've never seen anything grow so fast. Why didn't I buy more?

Hello Barbara,
Amaryllis are one of the prettiest bulbs, I can imagine. Here you can buy them blloming until at least January.

i just got one yesterday--plus two for gifts. i forgot to get my paper whites out and start the process of bringing them back to life. i guess it's never too late.
thanks for the reminder.
