Amaryllis

I spotted this pretty pink amaryllis in Old Town Alexandria recently. I thought it was so pretty in these windows.  My fancy amaryllis I ordered from White Flower Farm is still growing--sooo slowly, it's driving me nuts.  I check it every day and it's growing by millimeters.  I keep waiting for it to start shooting up and it's just not happening. And then when putting Christmas decorations away in the basement, I found another old amaryllis that I had put there last fall--hmm, don't know if that will grow either. I'm not having much luck with amaryllis this year,  but I do love them.  Here's a photo from last year's amaryllis, it was a winner, 'Tres Chic.'
