Amaryllis(hippeastrum) naturally bloom in spring here and these flowers shown below are forced blooms. These are not grown by me, but an expert gardener of lahore, Dr. Amir yar khan. These shots are taken from his lawn. Enjoy the flowers.

Spectacular! Amaryllis bloom here in deep south USA in fall and spring. I have a number of bulbs in my yard, but this year they had not bloomed. Thanks for sharing.
