Amaryllis Opening #WordlessWednesday

 For years, I have overwintered amaryllis I bought, hoping I could get them to rebloom.  I've only succeeded twice.  The second time is now.  I had three amaryllis and managed to get one of the three to rebloom

(If you are interested in trying this, here's how.)

This year, as the flower started to open, I decided to take some pictures of the process.

January 28.

January 31, lunchtime.

I am so thrilled.  This is the story of when I bought this bulb in 2021.  It's actually its second visit to Wordless Wednesday.

  10. That's a wonderful photo progression of the buds opening. I love amaryllis and love that I can plant them outside. I have a couple of months before I can see them.
