Amaryllis/Hippeastrum

May 2012 Bloomers

I FINALLY moved my pots of hybrid Hippis out of the cold room and into the sun on the deck. Here are a few photos. Most of them wintered well and I am pleased with the number of scapes on most of them. Now, the next chore is to move the H. species, amaryllids, and worsleyas from under the grow lights in the basement, up the hill and onto the deck. Makes me tired just thinking about it!

Is that "Fairy Tale" (red striped / broad white Midrib / flowers in a nice cluster) - fabulous performance! The flowers appear rather large to me. Thank you for showing!

Oh wow! What a fantastic arrangement of flowers! I think my back would hurt too if I eyed all those pots that needed to be moved around. ;)

So many gorgeous blooms! I see a Gervase in there. That will definitely be on next year's wish list... I love the unpredictable nature of Gervase's flowers! -Tina
