Second Blooming Stalk On Red Amaryllis

This is a nice surprise to have another lovely flower in March. This Amaryllis is about 36 inches tall and as you can see the blossom is huge.  It is called Giant Red Lion Hybrid Amaryllis.  I guess that says it all. I think the Amaryllis  bulbs were slow to bloom this year because the house has been a lot cooler than what it was last winter. I have kept the thermostat lower in order to keep  the bill lower. The bill has been more than double this year because of the colder weather.   

And, guess what?  The other Amaryllis are putting out more stalks with the lovely pink and white blooms. So, when they open a little more, I will take some photos to show you.

With our continuation of winter weather there isn't much happening in the garden.  It seems like many states are having strange patterns, more than usual.

I hope your week is going well. Unfortunately, my hypertension is giving me problems again and I'll have to go to the doctor soon.

Bye for now.
