…or perhaps you already know him?
He was actually in Tyra's Garden in May...yeah, I know his LBJ deid in -73 but this one is in fact still alive, barely alive, he is resting in the greenhouse.
I was looking in at Jan’s Always Growing this morning and she wrote about Amaryllises.
In my effort to have more blooming perennials, for the last few years, I have been planting amaryllis bulbs in the garden.
When it suddenly struck me that I haven’t planted any of my Amaryllises that I have so carefully saved, nor I have I bought and planted any new…I just totally forgot. I wonder if I will get any in time for Christmas now?
Here is a favorite among my Amaryllises, President Johnsson.
Mr President Johnson in Tyra's Garden! WOW what an honour Mr. president. ...

He's a beauty! Now the original was not, but he was a very interesting and complicated politician.
Gorgeous Tyra. I am not acquainted with this amaryllis. I love the white petals edged in red.
Gail he is so delicate and 'clean' looking strange name though I would prefere a name like 'Grace Kelly'...
Katheen it is different isn't it and very pretty.
Thank you girl for your kind comments
Han är strålande vacker! :) Tack för hälsningen inne hos mig. Jag gillar verkligen adventstiden...tom mer än själva julen tror jag. Ha en skön helg! Kram Karin
Definitely more beautiful than its namesake.
Every year, I mean to grow an amarylis. Every year, I forget. But I do like them very much - they are so dramatic!

What a beautiful specimen. Lovely indeed. I too read Jan's entry. Made me want to get out there and hunt down some bulbs!

This is a lovely amaryllis. I have some all white ones, but I like the little red edging on this one.
