This is my oldest Amaryllis, it may be 25 years old, I forget.
An old 'Red Lion' variety I got at the super market for $5.
This year it has 2 flower stalks, each with 4 flowers. Usually the flower stalks come up one after the other, this year they are together.
People ask how I get it to live so long, I tell them Maximum Sun.
The second pic shows it where it grows, in a very sunny window, until it goes out for the Summer.

Wow,
You've had that bulb for 20 years? That's an impressive accomplishment.
Thanks for the comment AB. It's the first one in 8 months, lol.
This bulb and 7 of it's siblings are resting in the basement. They will get repotted on New Years Day.
