Amaryllis 01-09-23

I love these fabulous amaryllis bulbs growing in a wax coating and buy them for myself and as gifts every Christmas.   Even though I know what they look like they are always a surprise.  The red are the most common, but this year I found a white one in a pot that I gave as a gift.  


Some grow tall and blossom and some can hardly wait to get out of the bulb!


And here is Ruth B. McDowell's rendition of a pink amaryllis which is part of the Thomas Contemporary Quilt Collection.   one of my most favorites.
