I love amaryllis! But they are short-bloomed, especially if we have heat. I put in a small patch:

My neighbor does a mass planting in his front yard - and people stop their cars to take photos, some years he does spider lilies.

I can't grow tulips, crocuses or hyacinth without a lot of hassle.

I have one left blooming inside from my winter forcing. ‘Picotee.’ White with red edges.

I’ll get some pictures posted later today - right now it’s too nice to stay inside because our heat wave has broken. Yay!
