Welcome to my Flower of the Day Challenge (FOTD).  During the winter months, please feel free to use your archives and find some old favorite photos.

Please feel free to post every day or when you you feel like it.  Don’t forget that my FOTD challenge accepts gardens, leaves and berries as well as flowers.

I’ve gathered a list of challenges and their hosts.  So if you know a challenge host, please direct them to my blog.  Feel free to contact me anytime.  I hope everyone will be able to use my lists.

    • In short the answer is no.

      I looked it up on the web and this is what I found.
      Although amaryllis flowers resemble lilies, they are not even close relatives. The amaryllis plants that we force into bloom belong to the Hippeastrum genus in the Amaryllidaceaefamily. They originated in the tropical areas of South America, thus are tender perennials and grown as houseplants.

  1. Great macro Cee!.

    Nothing is blooming here, so it’s archive time until something starts to bring up buds — which might be a couple of months. Since I have a lot of Amaryllis, this is one I thought i might share.
