Amaryllis
Isn’t this the most beautiful thing? This salmon-colored amaryllis was a gift from my mother-in-law. She brought it over a few weeks before Christmas when it was just a little sprout. Then, miraculously, it bloomed into this on Christmas morning. Of course, I had to snap a photo of it with my new macro lens. (Thank you Santa!)
Swoon!
This flower always reminds me of my late Grandma Cecelia who loved them, and had a pot on her mantel every Christmas.
