It's Candy Floss, Lin.
It's bloomed almost non stop since early December. Here it is today, last blooms, I think.

Enjoy the new year and stay well!. Been busy in the kitchen on my days off, but always watching the exchange to see who got what.
Getting in the kitchen now to make a few cheesecakes that I will give as thank you gifts to a few people.

And a Happy New Year to each of you too! I know I'm late posting, but I've been eating almost non stop since day before yesterday. My husband is a fabulous cook and he seems to think that a clean kitchen with an empty sink, is an invitation to cook yet something else. Thank goodness they all go back to work tomorrow and I can get back on my diet. I have to start getting back in shape for my garden this Spring. After watching the Rose parade today, I get the longing to do another rose garden. The only problem with that is the only rose I can get to grow without blackspot here, is the Knockout. I guess I could try some of the Carefree ones, to see if they work out alright with our humidity. I need to go visit the Rose forum to see what is new this year.

Sharon, your Candy Floss is beautiful. This is the first year in 5 that I didn't order any Amaryllis to grow during the colder months.

Debbie!! You sound great again!

And Candy Floss just keeps right on blooming, here it is about an hour ago, with two more buds yet to go.

Yep Sharon, I am feeling so very much better. And Candy Floss is just gorgeous. I will put her on my wish list for next fall. Do you have it inside or out?

Inside, too cold to leave them out right now, I think.

Yep, that's what I do when I have them. Then I plant them outside when it warms up. I must have 50 of them outside , dormant now. I must confess. A sweetheart sent me 3 Picotee bulbs (my favorite Amaryllis), about 8 weeks ago and they are still in their bags in their box. But they are sitting in a cool space, so I may plant them tomorrow and see if they will bloom this late.

This is one of my Picotees from last year.

Looks like my Trentino, but bigger.
I love the pink edge, the faint blush.
