Amazing Amaryllis Just Keeps Going

                                                                                   


Back at Thanksgiving, Claui's folks gave us our Christmas present--a beautiful tureen planted with two huge bulbs. One bulb has bloomed magnificently, producing four flowers . . .while the other has taken its sweet time.                                                        
But finally, the last bloom began to fade-beautiful to the end.

When the blossom had turned to a dark, limp rag, I cut off the stalk and was surprised to find a second bud, beginning to show. Meanwhile, the other bulb, the slowpoke, was rearing up and it, too, seemed to have a hint of another bud to come.
At this rate, the show could go on for some while! Thanks, Bill and Nancy!
