Hippeastrum Chronicles 1/26 to 2/15

Jan 26, 2008  First sign of life emerging.  This was a gift from a friend 2 X'mas' ago.  A new challenge because it was my very first Amaryllis.  It turned out to be a beautiful white bloomer; I think it rebloomed three times before it became a much smaller bulb.  So, this is its second season.  Not quite sure if it's had enough rest and recuperation.
Feb 8, 2008  A very straight and narrow leaf has emerged.  Hmm... not enough energy to send up a bloom.
Feb 13, 2008   And then, something is peeking out.
Feb 14, 2008  And there is daily progress.
Feb 15, 2008  It looks like it's going to send up some blooms!
