Dramatically colored amaryllis

I didn't see a pot label for this one, but it certainly is eye-catching.

Spectacular banner Elizabeth!

Dramatic to say the least, love its striking coloration. I'm sure one of NGA's fine amaryllis experts will identify it. 🥇 🥇 🥇 🥇 🥇

And there it is the prized 'Butterfly' Amaryllis…

Super banner…marking the end of winter….hopefully… and the beginning of spring.

Thanks, @bumplbea for the heads up on Butterfly amaryllis. I wasn't familiar with the name.
Here's my source image, which interested viewers can compare with photos in the database page

Yet another beautiful banner, Elizabeth!

I can't stop staring at the stark red stripes. I even zoomed in to look at them closer

for You have been my help, and in the shadow of Your wings I will sing for joy.

A beauty! Especially how the lines of the plant radiate in the same way as the NGA logo's sun rays. Outstanding banner!
