I read some of people here who have their amaryllis, and I must say I am glad I've got mine for encouragement on a cold winter day! Got some advice about it from a page at www.rochestergardening.com/bulbs They had holiday plant information too. Lots of stuff to see there, 'fraid that I wasted most of a Sunday online. Or, is it a waste? Seems otherwise I would be reading the garden catalogs coming in mail. Hey, did you hear that Ferry Morse will not have a seed catalog anymore? Maybe they think we will all be buying online. I dont know about you, but it is a yearly ritual for us to thumb thru the catalogs and choose what we want. The catalog wont go out of style.
