I thought I asked this before and yet I cannot find a post from me. The long leafed items, contained in the upside down tomato cage, are my amaryllis bulbs. Last year I left them outside till end of September (at least then maybe longer.). They did not produce any amazing trumpet flowers by the time the Christmas holidays came around. Instead I had Easter Amaryllis. Which holiday the trumpets blast is not important to me. What I’d like to know is: when do people take a perfectly healthy plant, who’s getting sun, and stick it into a dark cool basement while cackling and saying “See you in 8 weeks. If you live through the darkness.” Then with more cackling as you turn out the light. Oh and ignore the baby tiger. If Paris Hilton can have a purse dog then I can have a backpack tiger. (I’m kidding.)
