Amaryllis: Week 11

We started this week with a glimpse of Spring warmth but are ending it in the midst of icy cold (it was 17 degrees when we loaded into the car this morning).  No matter, because I have these glorious blooms to greet me every day.

It’s actually hard to capture the size of this splendid floral display; it’s nearly 3 feet tall and there are 7 blooms in the two flowers at the top of these stems.

Spring Break is just around the corner and this week has rather worn me out but the amaryllis brings cheer to my days and that is a happy thing.
