My amaryllis has bloomed


I have been waiting since Thanksgiving for my flower to bloom. I thought I had killed it since it wasn't doing anything. (Turns out our house was too cold for its liking). But I have been waiting with anticipation since it started doing something after we moved and it finally blossomed yesterday. Since most of you will not get to see it in person, I decided to share it with you in pictures. Notice how much snow is outside the window? My amaryllis helps me to get past the winter "blahs" with its beautiful colors. Thank you Grandma Shirley for giving it to us!

thats incredible! that is such a blessing to see something so amazing like that when all the rest of the world seems to have forgotten how to grow.

I so can't wait for spring to see more flowers blooming. I just planted some of mine, so I don't know if I'll see them this year. All I have now is my bamboo plant and it's not pretty.
