In the arboretum I saw amaryllis in various colors. I was pleasantly surprised because I only saw the amaryllis in red. I made a collage with some of the most interesting colors.
No other houseplant flower can liven up winter days with as much color as amaryllis. There is a whole range of varieties available from large-flowered amaryllis and varieties with full flowers, to dwarf amaryllis, which also beautify smaller window sills.
However, amaryllis are not only beautiful as ornamental pots. They are also beautiful as cut flowers, regardless of whether the vase is decorated with only one flower or a basket bouquet is placed in it.
If we want Amaryllis to bloom, it needs (similar to cacti) a dormant period in winter. There is no need to take the bulb out of the ground (they say it is even better if we leave it in the ground), it just needs to be in dry soil and in a cool place. In the spring, when it begins to repel the leaves (not earlier), we begin to water it gradually.

on my monitor, they are all blue (just kidding) 😉
they are quite lovely! I’ve seen some of the colors in our neighborhood but not all the colors you shared.
I’m glad at least some of us still know how to joke and I fully understand the joke.
i am happy you get the joke!
trying to lighten the mood around here!!!
The picture is beautiful i need to get down to the national arboretum when it reopens (July they are saying now)!
Fortunately, there are at least a few positive members here. 😊
i try to be positive as much as I can. at least one fun post per day!
That is quite a collection. Must have been a veritable paradise for your eyes.
You are right. I have been observing this “miracle” for a long time.
Wow, what a variety! Each of them is beautiful.
Thank you, Ellie. You are right, it is difficult to choose the most beautiful.
