Amaryllis /hippeastrum
Amaryllis belladonna is a bulbous plant and, comes from South Africa it has 6 to 12 flowers on a solid flower stem it has only one species in its genus. However it gets confused with Hippeastrum (scientific name), Amaryllis is its common name.
The hippeastrum comes from South Africa also, and has 4 to 6 large flowers on a hollow stem. It also is a bulbous plant. The Hippeastrum has several species.
There are a lot of cultivars developed from hybridising several hippeastrum species.
Amaryllis is easy to grow.

The Plaka Hotel is a real find. It is ideally situated at the foot of the Acropolis and is amongst ,or within easy walking distance, of many of Athens attractions. It is on the corner of a small side street just a hundred yards or so from the metro station that is at the end of the line from the airport. Some bedrooms do have a direct view to the Acropolis.
The hotel staff are friendly and helpful and the accomodation is generally clean and modern. Our room was quite small but not so much that it was a problem.

We paid £33 a night for a double room with breakfast and thought this was a real bargain. Make sure you compare sites for prices as they vary considerably.
The breakfast was quite basic but included ...
Advantages: Almost grows while you watch it, beautiful flowers in the middle of winter Disadvantages: I can't think of any.
Amaryllis! What a lovely word! I love the way it rolls from the mouth; it was a popular Greek name for women in ancient times. I would have loved to be called such a romantic sounding name as Amaryllis.
Amaryllis or Hippeastrum?
What is in a name? Well the true Amaryllis Belladonna is a different bulb altogether. This Amaryllis has Hippeastrum as it's botanical name, which means Knight Star, another romantic sounding name I think.
So, what is it?
A flowering bulb.
Flowering bulbs include some of my favourite flowers and plants, this one I don't generally plant in the garden but grow indoors to brighten the darkest days of winter. A tender bulb, which started life in the mountains of South America. I am not sure though how it came to grow in parts of Africa. My uncle spent a large part of his life in such exotic places as ...
