Morning Light -


On Tuesday in my post on re-blooming, the amaryllis looked like THIS
Tightly budded and full of promise.
As I said, patience was all that was required, plus a refreshing
weekly drink and a sunny window.

These photos were taken early today.  
Two blooms open and two more to go.



This is all you need to know regarding tossing your lovely amaryllis bulbs 
after their initial bloom, usually timed for the Christmas holiday season.
Save them, plant them outside come Spring and give them time and TLC.

Planting them in the garden in Spring through late Summer isn't 
difficult, then a couple of months in low light - for me it's the potting
 shed - and then re-pot in Autumn. Look what awaits you, more
 beautiful blooms to enjoy on these Winter mornings. 

Don't be surprised if I show you this beauty at least once more when
the other buds open!  There may be nothing in bloom outside in the
 garden but here in the dining room it's colorful.
