Peppermint stripes

Sitting by this plant after I saw @wakelys 's photo of her amaryllis. I didn't think mine had bloomed, but got a surprise when I gave it a good look. There was one other bloom opening and two more buds ready to open. I need to pay better attention to my plants.

@grammyn Thanks Katy. Sometimes I wonder where my mind goes not to enjoy this beauty. I think I haven't been spending much time where the plants are lately.
@shutterbug49 Aren't the colors and pattern beautiful. Thanks Debbie.
@will_wooderson I'll be losing them if I'm not careful. Thanks Will.
