My AMARYLLIS are in bloom!

The bulbs were a gift,

 brought back from Asia

 over 10 years ago. 

I keep them outdoors all year around 

 under a tree in the shade.

I basically neglect them

and rarely water them.

This is a hot dry climate, 

in case you are wondering, 

where the temperatures never (or rarely!) 

go below freezing.

Obviously they like their home because

once a year

 they reward me with their profuse blooms!

 And here is the perfect tote to go with the flowers ;)
