My wife and I followed our New Years tradition and went to Longwood
Gardens for the first day of the year. Here is one of their Amaryllis
showing off.

Yes, very nice! I don't think that is mutated. Over the years I have
seen quite a few that look like that.

Although I often snap a quick shot of the name tags there at Longwood,
I was so busy with this guy I didn't catch his name. It is, however, a
partially opened double amaryllis and it was quite short at maybe 6in.
I had to lay flat on the ground to get eye-to-eye with him.
