Beautiful! My amaryllis has never gotten the hang of blooming at Christmas. The first year I had it the flowers showed up in February; last year it bloomed in July!
I found a couple bulbs in pots that had been sitting in a closet for 2 years. I decided to give them a chance before chucking them onto the compost pile; within a week of watering them they both sent up leaves! I don't know if they'll flower this year, but I was pretty impressed with them surviving at all!
I am an evangelical Christian. I have two daughters whom I homeschool: Bella (15), and Daisy (8), and three older children: Giles (21), a college graduate, Felix (19), a college junior, and Clara (17), a college freshman. I'm 42 years old and happily married to my Dear Composer. We live in a 1920's school converted into a home, outside of town. And God is good.
Feel free to Pin my photos, but please link back to the page you found them on.
Photography
Photography is an important part of life at my house. Photos that appear here are taken by Giles, by the Composer, and by me. Giles is a real, paid photographer, and he uses a Sony Alpha. Most of the photography prior to September 2008 is his. Since then I have done most of the shooting and I use a Konica Minolta. Additionally, the Composer offers me nice shots on occasion, often from his little Canon point and shoot. I've given up trying to note who's done what. Thanks for your interest!

Beautiful! I saw these bursting out of their boxes at TJ Maxx - begging for someone to buy them!
I replanted last years'. Do you think it will flower again?
