A final picture to show how big the lovely amaryllis has grown. Sadly it overbalanced in the night and no 2 flower was broken.

No 2 has almost caught up now. It's lovely having two amazing flower stems.

Four glorious flowers on the first bud are totally out and very colourful

No 2 bud is catching up rapidly

End of two weeks and here are the latest

A short video of the show so far!

No 1 flower is opening further and further - the top two flowers are growing and will open soon. No 2 bud is pushing its flowers out, much more upright than no 1.

Now the first flower is opening up.

Amazing how the first one is almost wholly out now and no. 2 is powering one.

A huge flower is emerging -

-and the new bud is speeding on.
