Hi it looks like an Amaryllis to me ( aka Hippeastrum). Does it have a quite large bulb slightly growing above the soil level?. Do the leaves have glossy green strap like shape?.

I agree, Amaryllis, we have lots listed in our database: https://garden.org/plants/brow... It reminds me a lot of Amaryllis (Hippeastrum 'Red Lion') I have a few that have been blooming the past couple of weeks, this is my Red Lion:

Hydrangea of some sort. Someone will likely be able to come close on the cultivar.
