Your Weekly Amaryllis - Week 6

Last Saturday, we achieved peak flower.

This morning, the amaryllis stem is standing to lean under its own weight, a development that usually occurs after the year’s flower has bloomed.  In this photo, is propped up with my hand.  It’s still lovely to see each day.

And, I’m starting to wonder if another stem is underway.  I’ll watch closely in the next few days because a bonus flower would be most lovely. 

If not, my pretty pink flower, the mild weather of February, and the tips of daffodils peaking through Winter’s soil, has me convinced that Spring really is close at hand.  

That’s happy!
