WOW! They are ALL awesome! O0
But I just LOVE seeing pix of Colorado, one of the most reliable and relentlessly blooming hardy lilies available. (8:-)

Love the amaryllis too.
Mine have just been brought in for the winter.

I have a variegated amaryllis, with a tiny bit to share.
Want one Tim? (Craig has some of my variegated Amaryllis too)
I'll trade you for a water lily in return, next spring. 8)

Those are absolutely gorgeous and I will never ever tire of looking at pics of beautiful waterlilies (and other flowers).  I collect amaryllis, so I especially love to see pics of their flowers.  Mine are all dormant (or going dormant) now, so I have no flowers.  I'm looking for a really good pot or two to put them all in together.  I am pretty sure I've lost my favorite but won't know till they bloom . . . . then I have to order another quick!

Joyce - Variegated amaryllis.... Hmmmm... would I like one.... Oh Yeah!!
Kay & Teresa - It is one of two varieties I bought at a plant sale in October. I also got a Pasadena. It is a double red with a white stripe. It will probably bloom in the next month.
This was the first time my wife was able to go with me to a plant sale. I go to at least two major functions a year. Somehow with her along I spent twice as much money. At least I can "blame" her for that...sounds good doesn't it.  {:-P;;

You're welcome Tim. :)
I was VERY surpried how small the bulbs were when I dug them.
I gave you the biggest bulb of the 3 I had.
Kept 2 for myself, repotted into brand new soil and compost mix.

Problem was, they were in a pot with a lot of other tropicals, too much root competition. :o

Here are photos of the blossom...(blooming in my cold garage last winter!)
