Better to have a bloom be two days late (for GBBD) than to never make an appearance.

It's amazing how quickly they grow. I had to smile as the sequence of photos.

I'm way behind in reading my favorite blogs as you've probably guessed.

Great to hear from you, Donna.
I couldn't resist the urge to document the amaryllis growth. I have 4 more without blooms. I'm trying to figure out why they didn't bloom. All plants are treated the same. Any ideas?

My best guess as to why the 4 amaryllis aren't blooming is that they're just plain stubborn!
