{Amaryllis Stargazer Blooms in Our Wood Garden}

Coming home from tropical Curaçao we found several exotics blooming in our own garden. Across the creek, in our wood garden the Amaryllis Stargazer was showing off some great blooms. Just click the hyperlink to go to White Flower Farm, where we purchased it from, some 15 years ago as an indoor bulb. After it bloomed, we did plant it into the garden. Come join me for a Mariette's Back to Basics Garden Tour...
  • They are HUGE! But appear very happy and healthy.

  • Don't they look majestic...?

  • Four blossoms in this photo from two different plants...
Do you have any Amaryllis; either as a forced bulb or out in the garden?

  6. Mooi Mariette. Jullie hebben al heerlijk weer denk ik? Bij ons loopt het jaargetijde iets achter en in Nederland helemaal.
    Jij wandelt zeker wel vaak in jouw mooie park?
    Ga binnenkort weer naar Nederland en heb dan niet zoveel tijd om te bloggen.

    Groetjes Janny

  13. Liebe Mariette,
    bei dir würde ich gerne mal eine Garden Tour buchen. Das stelle ich mir herrlich vor. Sowas gibt es hier auch, es heißt Tag der offenen Gärten. Man kann sich anmelden und es wird in der Zeitung bekannt gegeben, welche Gärten offen stehen. Da trifft man sehr nette garteninteressierte Leute. Die Amaryllis ist eine Pracht.
    Schöne Grüße, Johanna

  17. Dearest Mariette, These are so beautiful. These are sooooo much like those lost to the "lawn guy". I am going over to your link to see if I can use these for replacements. They look so lovely and I know it was a joyous surprise for your return. Glad you had a wonderful vacation.
    Blessings and love to you, Ginger

  21. Again, thanks a lot everyone for visiting our wood garden to see this exotic looking Amaryllis. Yes, we do have a different climate where such flowers can be outside. Have a great day and enjoy your flowers; either home grown or else.
