Amaryllis for Easter

I bought some amaryllis plants a couple of years ago. They were in the clearance section at Home Goods. I wrote a post about the containers they came in and they bloomed beautifully. I was concerned that they would not bloom again but the next year they did and now two years later, they are blooming again. I am so thrilled. 

You will see amaryllis blooming in many gardens here in Florida. They multiply and usually grow in a group so when they bloom, you see many of them and it is a lovely sight. 

I have some in pots and others in the ground. The ones in the pots seem to bloom sooner than the ones in the ground, not sure why. 

I love this pink variegated one. My Easter bunny is keeping watch on them.

The red is pretty too. There are so many varieties of Amaryllis. 

I made these bunnies so many years ago out of plywood. I am surprised at how nice they have stayed. Probably one of these days, I will have to repaint them.

Hope your Easter is a lovely one.
