Very large bulb indeed. I guess it flowers in autumn but let's c how it performs here in lahore. Saw the pics on google, leaves very large and long flower spikes. I hope it will grow well for you. Doc, do let us know how your other bubs are doing. That will benefit lots of bulb growers :)

Most of the amaryllis are sprouting now. Allium ampeloprasum has also started to sprout. Will post pictures as they progress.
