This is the other amaryllis that we received as a gift. It already had two stalks and its buds have been popping like crazy over the past few days. Great excitement from Plant #1. The bit on the top of the bulb has grown almost 1/2 inch. VERY excited to see this! I put Plant #2 next to Plant #1 hoping it will serve as a useful model for Plant #1. They seem to be happy together.
Processed in Luminar4 (sky was from same location but a different night) and LR.
Oh! They are such beautiful flowers too! I always receive one for Christmas from my friend Ruthie. This year she gave me a lovely teacup and saucer. I tried to hide my disappointment when I opened my gift! Ha. Then I got busy and did not make it to the store to buy one. Will go today!
Lol - it was so good to hear that you provided ample opportunity for the education of Plant 2 - I hope he follows the example and produces another bud as lovely as this one. :)
Congrats, Taffy! TTT! I'd love to see a triptych of your amaryllis photos. I have a funny memory related to that name of the flower -- a song I played on the piano as a child, and I had no idea what an amaryllis was until I came to the US and learned it as an adult. Now I have a beautiful image in my head, thanks to you!
