Progress
The amaryllis flowers are going over now, but meanwhile the two bulbs I planted on January 11th are making progress. The one in the sitting room is growing steadily, almost visibly, but the conservatory bulb is sleepy and has barely started, so I’ve moved it to join its friend.
Allowing for six weeks to pass before flowering happens, we can hope for flowers just after St Valentine’s Day, and then, possibly, more in early March from the sleepy bulb.
What an
exciting life I lead!
Winter can be good for some things, lol. Like watching a bulb grow, a bit like watching a pot boil. But I look forward to you sharing photos of the incredible blossoms.
ReplyDeleteInteresting that you call is St Valentine’s Day. We don't say the Saint part over this wy.
