   I’ve never heard of this; it’s interesting that it’s in the amaryllis family. The color is lovely.

     Thank you! Many people call them Amaryllis, a Christmas favorite, but Hippeastrum is their true Latin genus name.

   They’re a delight! I’m going to make another try to get them to naturalize here. It worked in my former garden!

     That would be an amazing sight – a whole group of them glistening in the sunlight!

     Thank you, Cathy. I am drawn to it year after year, I can’t help myself. It’s the crystalline sparkle I love.

    Took another look, the petal edge and texture reminds one of a sea shell, very beautiful..
    • Eliza Waters says:

      February 20, 2020 at 10:23 am

      Thank you, I loved the wavy edge of the right hand petal. There is something of the sea in there.

    This is a view of Amaryllis I haven’t taken the time to see and a color I haven’t seen as well. Lovely plant, Eliza. Ours is getting huge and terribly pot bound.
    • Eliza Waters says:

      February 20, 2020 at 6:20 pm

      That surprises me as you have a keen eye, Steve. Being a gardener, flowers get my close attention. 🙂
      • Steve Gingold says:

        February 20, 2020 at 6:54 pm

        I’ve not paid as much attention to our houseplants as I do to the wild ones. Since I got that 25mm macro lens and the mini studio that is changing. 🙂

    I lost myself in the veins (is that the right word?) of the petals. So intricate and beautiful in their patterns. And so rich in color. As always, thank you for sharing nature’s art. ❤
    • Eliza Waters says:

      February 21, 2020 at 10:45 am

      Thank you very much, Shayleene. The closer I look at nature, the more amazed I am. 🙂

    A lovely joy to be so close to this hippeastrum, Eliza. The subtleties of the colors and intricacies of the veins are heavenly.

    Pretty … sort of looks like some Amaryllis I’ve purchased.
    • Eliza Waters says:

      February 23, 2020 at 4:22 pm

      Thanks, Denise. Commonly known as Amaryllis, they are in the same family, but different genus.
