Blooming of Amaryllis at Neighborhood – Nature 52

Temperature is quite good in our areas in recent days. We saw blooming of several flowers, one of them is Amaryllis. This could be mean that Spring is coming.

Amaryllis is a scientific name for a genus with two well known different species in the world:

- Amaryllis belladonna
- and Amaryllis paradisicola.

Amaryllis belladonna is believed from South Africa, while Amaryllis paradisicola is Mediterranian origin.

Both species are growing very well during Spring seasons in our city, Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

As you may know that Amaryllis is a perennial plant, the flowers are back to re-blooming every Spring times.

The re- blooming could be for years and years, because the plant life span is estimated to reach 75 years.

What make us love to the plants are due to their unique flower colors and foliage forms. They look so beautiful, and one of perfect flowers for outdoor or yards.
