Tuesday, 8:30 AM. –7 degrees, wind WNW, calm. The sky is mostly clear and the barometer predicts partly cloudy skies.It is a clear, cold, crisp day, the sun bright and everything silver tinted, with 2” of fresh snow reflecting rays of the gradually returning sun.
A second Amaryllis is blooming, a salmon/red beauty sporting eight blooms and buds on two stalks. Its very presence on the dining room table defies the deep freeze of winter. The bulbs in this pot are at least ten years old. I don’t remember them blooming at all last year but they are certainly making up for their recalcitrance.
