Amaryllis Red Head Pinup

18 years ago

I had to do something with this awesome retro tube. I made a set of tags also. I'm not putting any of them on my website, because they may shut down, so I'm looking for another. Meanwhile, I'll just post the link to the zip file from the site I store the zips at, which is a different site. So you can get the set HERE.

Ooooooooooh Summer,
I hope you don't lose ALL you have on your website to where we can not flourish in it?

I was just thinking of e-mailing you to personally thank you as a lifesaver of how to do two things I wanted to do that I remembered of you having on your website about outlook express.

Oh how sad! Please tell me it is not so?

You did another beauty with that tube up there.

I agree with everything Urlee said. I sure hope you have it all backed up somewhere(I'm sure you do!!). I lost a few pictures I had at one site I was trying because I didn't check in enough but I still had them on my computer.
Love the new pic.

...amaryllis growing too tall?!

Hi Dendrobium - welcome to the Club Now, as regards to the bit-too-much point must I disappoint you: Although it IS true - I strictly administer water by a rigid (time-)schedule... I apply only such quantities of lukewarm water with 1000 ppm 6-3-3 fertilizer into the saucer which are taken up rapidly from the substrate and - which considerably VARY on the actual growth state and the weather. This procedure ensures that the upper couple of cm substrate always remains completely bone-dry. This was the last stem of the season, and this stem was always seeking for SUNlight but only finding this deplorable gloomy left-over (of an already dim sunlight of a previous damned dim light of the summer season. The additional or even excessive elongation of flower scapes under insufficient light is well known among hippeastrum cut flower producers. These long stems are nothing positive nor negative - I found this simply interesting and wondered whether the bud was to touch the ceiling - they are simply a result of indoors forcing conditions - and such overlengthed stems are never produced from plants which are situated outdoors.

Transplanting Amaryllis right now?????
Q

Actually, now knowing that they are Johnsonii, I would have divided them. They produce offsets quite readily. You should be able to plant them in the ground in Louisianna without any problems. They are quite hardy in your zone. These jewels are so hardy that you can transplant them any time that you wish. If the leaves die back, you should remove them because decaying leaves may attract problems of whatever sort. You should plant them with their necks about the surface of the soil, but you should not be surprised when you see the neck disappear in the winter. These bulbs tend to pull themself downward, and you will usually see tips of leaves before you see a scape. Congratulations! Johnsonii is one of my all time favorites!!

Amaryllis or Hippeastrum?
Q
Comments (5)
I'm a bit confused about those, too... some companies and/or sellers list them as being hardy to zone 5 while others have them as hardy to zone 7... some even have them listed as only hardy in zones 8-10. They call them Naked Ladies, Resurrection or Surprise Lilies, Belladonna, and some have them listed as Crinum Lilies or Lycoris. There appear to be small differences, such as the flower color is a washed out pink in some, while it's very bright pink in others. As you said, stem color seems a bit different, as well. I'm sure there are other differences. I just don't know them well enough to tell them all apart. Since I can't really tell one from another, if I were to buy some bulbs I'd probably just plant them in a container and bring them in when the weather turned cooler in fall! Regardless of what they are or where they survive, they are very beautiful flowers... I saw a photo of them planted in a container, in bloom without the leaves present... and they were under-planted with what looked to be English Ivy and some type of small blue flowers... the effect was stunning! They looked rather like a pink topiary!

Heads up, the Lowe's by me got new displays last week. $3.98 for bulb only-Desire, Oskar, Star of Holland,Susan Apple Blossom and another one $9.98 kits-either a lined box with lid or a ceramic square pot-aphrodite, Danau, Lady jane, Apple Blossom, Denver, Pasadena, prince Carnival, Vera The Texas City lowe's had sold out all of the $3.98 bulbs except a couple, the Lowe's on 646 had not taken the shrink wrap off the display yet. Bulbs about the same size in all boxes. Same company as last year, should be interesting to see what grows. Tally HO!

Gee, I forgot to come back here to thank everyone. I have been so busy.

Judy,

Everything I have on my website is also on my hard drive. I also use wordzones backup. I have each pages html codes saved. But when I find a new site, each page will have a new name for each file, so it will be a little work. I figure I can just use notepad to change all of the file names to the new site.

For example, one of the gifs on my website is named "http://worldzone.net/computers/summersplace//AniTutsFiles/sum_ani_smileybulbs.gif";. And every other gif or jpg on each page will have the "http://worldzone.net/"; before it. So I will just click on "Edit/Replace" in notepad, and replace the world zone address with the new one. So if there are say 10 images on each page, it will do them all in a second or so. Of course I have several pages to do. I am going to look for a program that could do all of my pages at once, if there is such a thing.

Urlee,

I'm afraid they are going to close, (the free one) but I'll get another one. But the OE inst. are at another site and will stay. Here's that address...
