Looking for a Old-Fashion Amaryllis. Or aka Evergreen Amaryllis. Usually Pink. Never needs "Rest". Does not like cold, so may be grown in pots.

Are you looking for Amaryllis belladonna aka naked lady lilies? It's not hard to find online sources. I don't know of an amaryllis that is evergreen. I have several that have recently bloomed and others coming into bloom. They then produce leaves that last through summer. I force dormancy in fall and repot in December then repeat.

There are some Hippeastrums which are evergreen, including papilio, though I don't recall a pink one in particular.

I was looking for a Hipperstrum papilio, or a Butterfly Amaryllis. I have regular amaryllis, X-mass gifts. Also surprise lilies. Was hoping to have one given to me, but... Tried the local Master Gardeners, but the leader said she could not help me.
