Amarine
I made a cross between Amaryllis Belladonna x Nerine bowdenii four years ago and this is the first of the plants to flower in May last year. The flowers are larger than Nerine and has a similar flower head as the Amaryllis Belladonna and has the sparkle in the tepals like the Nerine.

Re: Amarine
Heinie, you seem to have exceptional skills in making hybrid plants. Would you mind writing a short tutorial for this forum?Heinie wrote:I made a cross between Amaryllis Belladonna x Nerine bowdenii four years ago and this is the first of the plants to flower in May last year.
