Mine is going gangbusters, as are the Paperwhites - you know about Miss Peach’s disaster, but she’s faring well, considering her ‘fall’ from grace, LOL!

I THOUGHT I had bought the ‘Red Lion’ but this Amaryllis is NOT a Red Lion - it’s the striped one. Still pretty, lots of blooms, but not the Red Lion that I love to have every year.

I guess some Elf at the North Pole decided it was time for me to mix it up a little!

I will have an article for Saturday’s ping about a related plant called, ‘Clivia.’ I would love to grow those again.

Sounds like a Minerva. I have 8 different ones and two duplicates, so 10 total. I owe you a Freepmail it will have to be next week sometime. I dug out the living and blooming Baby Peaches because the white ones took over only had two plants with roots that I could find. They are in a separate new clay pot. But they will be enough I think it is just too cold to ship anything living.
