Where's the flower?

By this time last year, I was enjoying my Amaryllis.  This year, there's just lots of leaves showing.

Doesn't everyone plant critters around the base of their flowers?  Actually this keeps inquisitive paws out.

Perhaps I should show it a picture of last year's bounty.

My January 2013 blooms...not going to have any this year in Jan.

    That's a striking red-orange color.

    Strange, isn't it? Sometimes they are on time and other times not.

    I carried a bulb over from a couple of years and I am getting the same foliage only. The blooms were nice you had last year.

    And the really fun thing is, I saved a box that says it's guaranteed. May have to ship the poor thing back to somewhere though. Last year's prolific bulb didn't make it through the first frost. No leaves after 6 weeks of warm and watering.

    Mine are cowering in the greenhouse, trying to survive the cold -- I'll be lucky if they live.

    I'm not getting any amaryllis blooms this year either.....not from the ones from years past or the ones I bought this year. I wonder what last summer had to do with it. At least we have the photos.

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
