amaryllis by quietpurplehaze

amaryllis

We bought an amaryllis bulb, ready planted, at the weekend and Ray suggested that I take a shot of it each week to see its progress. So here's this week's photo. The label just reads red/white but it's also in 3 other languages so I shall call it my amaryllis rouge/blanc. (Definitely more poetic - to me anyway). Looking ahead, I think it will make better photographs than an all red bloom.
Ray had a great idea. And maybe a collage at the end....

Those are so beautiful when they bloom. I love flowers. It's a shame I have two black thumbs. I can't keep anything alive.

Remind me on : Once, a artist make a pic. of a potato field every day of the year at noon precisely. And them he make a movie from it to show all the difference.
I will watch all yours too.

This looks like a very healthy plant. I think you will need to take daily pictures as they develop very quickly.
