horticultural experimentation


When I first saw how Trader Joe's was selling amaryllis lilies this year, I was very sceptical.  A bulb cased in wax (and imitating a pomegranate)?  And apparently needing no water?  (indeed, watering would be impossible).  But a couple of these have been sitting inside our living room, in relative warmth - very relative, some days - and I have to admit that, even if a little shorter than one might anticipate the growth in a pot to have been, the end result is pretty impressive.
