Winter blooms...

This amaryllis was a gift for Christmas, three years ago, so this is it's fourth blooming. Just as lovely as before, the blooms measure almost 8 inches across. I set it ourside for a while, after the weather warms, and give it a dormant period in the fall. Tucked away in corner, it wakes up right on schedule in late December.

Warm, 50* or more today, great day to be outdoors, or take a walk. We had some rain yesterday. Typical, changable January-in-Kentucky weather.
