Open Wide

It is a Christmas tradition that one of our good neighbors gives us a potted amaryllis bulb each year.  We never seem to be able to make each one last for a year but each year he gives us a new one.  My January 1st blog post shows the bulb just beginning to sprout.  In my February 1st blog post you can see the blossoms about ready to burst open.  The stem is now over two feet tall and the four blossoms opened up a couple of days ago in all their gorgeous splendor.  They make for great photo opps and will be the subject of my blog posts for the next few days.  This one is entitled Open Wide....
