I got not one, but two amaryllis for Christmas (one from my Dad, one from my aunt). Interestingly, they’re clearly both from the same supplier (they’re in fact the same variety), but have wildly different box designs. Anyway, I was very excited to get these, as I’m getting to the point of missing my currently buried under two foot snowdrifts garden. It’ll be nice to get a punch of color into the house. And, come March, my clivia should bloom, which is always a lovely show. It’s amazing to see what such a seemingly drab plant can produce. So here’s hoping I have great success in the flowering plant department this winter.
