For almost a month the amaryllis have bloomed and bloomed -- thirteen blossoms on three stems -- and now they are fading.
Delicate petal edges crumple inward and colors grow more nuanced.
Another few days and I'll move the bulbs into the bed in the greenhouse in hopes of an eventual glorious resurrection. Along with the pleasure their beauty has given us, has been the delight of hearing Josie say Ama-RILL-us!
