For an amaryllis flower to release pollen, the anther that holds the pollen must first mature and open. This splitting open of the anthers is called dehiscence.

Thank you for your great detail on describing and show photos of the dehiscence of the beautiful amaryllis! I enjoyed reading and learning. It is amazing to see how quickly the amaryllis grows and flowers.

Thank you!
