Oh, To Be in England…
Oh wait, I am in England! This is a dream of a lifetime trip for me. I had hoped to blog along during my trip but I can’t upload photos for some reason (I am only using my phone). I am posting daily on Instagram of the lovely places I am seeing. My Instagram ID is phillipoliver if you want to follow me. Cheerio!
This is a good photo. It is almost 3D. I feel like I could touch it. I agree that these blooms are worth waiting for. I know a lady that kept them for her garden. She had a space full of them blooming in summer. Also a pretty sight.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bloom!
ReplyDeleteHow are you (and your garden) faring in the below normal temps?
Happy New Year!
What a gorgeous closeup of an Amaryllis, the color is so rich. Some year I'm going to try growing them.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Maybe next year I will get one.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful flower, indeed. I usually let the bulbs recoup in the garden over the summer, and they quickly adjust to their non-forced state. They seem to want to bloom in April or so, naturally. Anyway, they are so lovely, I'll take them whenever they are ready. :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Will you be able to plant this outside? I was surprised when I found I could plant potted amaryllis in my Alabama garden after they bloomed, and they would come up and bloom the next year! Just catching up with your previous post, and your garden is looking good.I love your choice of the Katsura tree! Best wishes for 2017!
ReplyDeleteOh that's gorgeous. I just bought one of that color for the garden (50% off!). Here outdoors they bloom in April.
ReplyDeleteJust lovely! Mine has been extra slow too, but now I can see the petals, so it won't be too long now. I think I bought Apple Blossom this time.
ReplyDeleteAdorable flower. Very attractive.
