I noticed someone asked about amarylis bulbs being planted in the garden. I had spent 11 years in Central Florida and had planted multiple amarylis bulbs throughout my gardens. Every year I had the most stunningly beautiful display!! I would also dig up a few bulbs and gift them at Christmas time to co-workers and friends. Many of the bulbs, which I'm convinced were hybrids gifted to me, reverted back to the red/orange with yellow interior stripe over time. Some did stay true to their initial color of deep red, white and pink but over time I did notice many had indeed reverted back. When I moved back to Michigan, I dug up several bulbs to bring with me. They are now in various stages of growth and I am looking forward to seeing how they flower this year.
