Deep In The Heart :: Of You :: And, In Explore

One of my Amaryllis bulbs is blooming!! Here it is backlit in the morning sun...

 

I was careful to take my Amaryllis pots indoors before our hard freezes last winter... Soon after I set the pots back outdoors, an undetected snail ate both new leaves on this plant, as it was awakening from dormancy, in just one day... I had given up hope of the plant flowering this year... I was wrong! I did fertilize the plant a bit. I wonder if that helped...

 

This Amaryllis flower has more white than I remembered...

 

I must remember to look all over the pots to see if any new snails are lurking...;))
