Pretty



My Amaryllis is blooming at the office. Of course, what's generally known as Amaryllis is really Hippeastrum. Amaryllis actually refers to something we call around here a Resurrection Lily.

The Hippeastrum has large flowers that are very cheery. I have another plant that has never produced a bloom (this one I purchased with the flower stalks already up). Some young bulbs take a couple of years before they'll bloom, so I'm hoping for next year. In the meantime, I've enjoyed this plant immensely.
