1)My Ellen Bosanquets amaryllis. 2) My Ellen Bosanquets after straps were cut during the bad drought year in Texas. 3) a native amaryllis. and last, todays pictures of the Ellen Bosanquets as the freezes hit and the plant dies back... the straps will continue to die back and cover the bulbs- which provides a protection of sorts. The red stalked amaryllis is a pink scented one, that will get to be absolutely huge stalked, humongous. For our zone these remain outdoors all year, By zone 7 they are winter indoor tender prizes. I will not even trim back the bad straps until spring when the new straps push thru with the old dried straps on the tips of new growth.
