Amaryllis progress

 

Amaryllis progress

The plant I bought before Christmas is slowly opening one bud. There is no colour showing yet. The bud on the shorter stem looks as though it may not come to anything, but I’m happy to be proved wrong.

The two bulbs I planted are showing signs of growth. Each one has a small area of green emerging from the bulb. The conservatory bulb is less advanced than the one in the sitting room, though that may not be significant in the long run. At this point I cannot see them ever producing anything more than green leaves, but time will tell.

  1. Even green leaves during the winter can be nice, but I hope you end up with beautiful flowers.

    Love,

  2. The last time you posted about your amaryllis I became so fixated on wanting one ... I did look in to buying a bulb here & when to plant etc ... then Christmas came & I got busy.
    Now I have seen yours I want one all over again. It is not something I have ever grown & I would love to give it a try. I shall make some more inquiries - thanks Janice. xx

  3. It's lovely to see things grow, especially something like the Amaryllis.

  4. That quiet, tentative greening feels like a promise rather than a conclusion
