Evolution of an Amaryllis!

I took this picture soon after buying this wonderful amaryllis. It cost me $15! (Willard Bay Gardens!)

By 11/11 it looked like this:

12/10: First bloom!



12/24: Second bloom!



Then, the leaves really came out and I was expecting to not see another bloom until next winter.

I was wrong!

1/25/11: THIRD bloom!



It still looks like this and is actually sending out 5 blossoms! I have completely enjoyed this plant! I'm hoping that I can actually get this one to rebloom. I got a great tip to make that happen, so here's to hoping!

My Yard in the Fall

I love the seasons!! Since I grew up basically without them (in Florida) I love all of the changes! I can even appreciate the snow in October! I do have trouble with it in April, though!

Living in Utah, I've also come to enjoy colors other than green. There is beauty even in the gray!

So, here are some pictures of my yard in the fall!

The Colors of My Garden!

I love to take pictures of my garden! I like to get up close and see lots of detail and beautiful color!

Enjoy!









If my neighbors see me, they probably think I am nuts! I get down on the ground and right up to rocks and grass! I love it! My family already thinks I'm a nut because I take pictures of plants on vacation!
