Yay a flower bud hope it gets as big as last year

👍👍👍👏👏👏

My amaryllis set seed! Waiting for it to ripen before I sow it then for the long 5 year wait to see it flower if I haven't killed it before then

How exciting 😍😍

Yep that is exciting.

She's out😍😊

Beautiful 😍 😘

Hope she’s got her coat on then...it’s a bit nippy out! 🤭Ahhh she’s lovely ❤️💚❤️

Wow gorgeous 🤗

Wow, that's cool

She's a real beauty this one Carol!!💘😍

Great looking flower, never seen one before. 👍🏻👍🏻

Isn’t she lovely ♪

Looks gorgeous 😊👍

Almost she's a little shy!

Ooh! Nearly! 😬

This is stunning, I have this and the green petaled one on my list for buying when they're available again 😀😍😀

What she said. Stunning!

Wowsers 😲😍

Beautiful

Gorgeous ❤️

Wow fabulous 🤗💛❤️💚

I'm hoping this will be out more when I get back from work today 😊

What a beauty!!💘😍

Beautiful ❤️

Ooh!! Is it?! 😬

No quite, hopefully tomorrow @rachelbrooks

So very close to flowering and so very tall!!

Ooh errr Mrs! 😯 Is that the one you got at West green? 🤔

How did you know my middle name!! 😂 😂 She certainly is bendy I watch her at night slowly moving to find the light it's fascinating to see @scaryskates

Wow! What does that stalk measure?

No I didn't get one there did think bout it though, mum got this in the reduced bit of a gc after xmas @rachelbrooks it's so big I've had to put stones around the bulb to weigh it down 😱

65cm from base of bud to top of bulb @kylers

Blimey, you might have to erect a bit of scaffolding👍🏻😂 @carolgs

Ah I remember you looking! Yes she looks a bit top heavy! We should name her Dolly Parton! 🤣

Ha my last one grew this big..nearly needed a ladder to see the flowers 😂😂

Think you could be right Celina, I saw some scaffolders this morning I wonder if I could borrow some failing that I'll have to make a bamboo cane structure for her @cee

Dolly is a great name for her(it's easier than her botanical one) especially if the second bud gets that tall too😂😂@rachelbrooks

Crazy. Can't wait to see there bloom!

Finally after I camt remember how long my bulb is finally throwing up a flower bud, thought I killed it

This bulb must be having a strong survival instinct. Of course your caring must have helped a lot 👍

Day one of planting😊

This looks quite special - will have to look out for this one

Beautiful haven’t seen it before ❤️😍👍🏻
