Looks beautiful. This was cross between cultivar "Clown" or "Dancing Queen" and some other cultivar. Took 4-5 years to have the bloom. It is more interesting to makes crosses rather than acquire new varieties of Amaryllis.

Sir you are right. It has to be "Dancing Queen" being double with cultivar "Clown" being single only. Cant' remember the name of the other cultivar.

You are right, actually there was an uninvited guest received with the plant. So before doing any thing he has damaged the bud but caught before clean sweep....lol.
