Here's my 'lady in waiting' my Zombie that thrilled me so last year (its first) and a gift from our own critterologist with our planting of Joyanna's Crocus Lawn.
With family events last fall I did not follow best practices with Zombie. She lived outside last summer and stayed in ground well into fall I guess. She is a double flower on a short (for amaryllis) stem. I pulled her and wrapped her in paper for winter. I opened her up sometime in Jan? Feb? and soaked her roots for a day in a 'tea', then potted her.
