    So, its obvious that you have a green thumb. Enlighten me please. My lilies bloom once and then they are done. I pull the dead stems off, I fertilize, to no avail.

    Are they amaryllis or lilies?(shows you how much I know)Either way,they are beautiful!
    I like Dusty Miller plants too,they attract all kinds of butterflies,which are fun to watch.

    I do believe they are amarillis. The leaves are not long like my lillies.
    I found this poem....enjoy

    Amaryllis

    A flower needs to be this size
    to conceal the winter window,
    and this color, the red of a Fiat with the top down, to impress us, dull as we've grown.

    Months ago the gigantic onion of a bulb half above the soil stuck out its green tongue and slowly,
    day by day,
    the flower itself entered our world, closed, like hands that captured a moth,
    then open, as eyes open,
    and the amaryllis, seeing us,
    was somehow undiscouraged.

    It stands before us now
    as we eat our soup;
    you pour a little of your drinking water into its saucer,
    and a few crumbs of fragrant earth fall onto the tabletop.

    These flowers are beautiful!!!!!
    Mine are all gone, I don't no what happened, but as soon as they bloomed the petals all fell off.
