Amaryllis flowers brighten winter
Sure, you can bring home some new houseplants or buy some potted tulips at the supermarket. But if you want to make a bold splash, try an amaryllis . This tropical Americas native grows from a huge bulb (many are about the size of a mango) and has a stalk and flower to match.
Colors range from many shades of red, pink, and orange to white -- and combinations of those (red and white is a personal favorite).
If you're convinced, what now?
The easiest way to get started with amaryllis is to buy an already potted, already growing bulb. You'll find them at home stores, garden centers, florists, nurseries, and the floral departments of grocery stores.
If possible, choose one that has big flower buds on it that have not yet opened. (If the flowers are already open, you won't get to enjoy them for as long as if you buy the plant with buds.)
Make sure the plant is wrapped against the cold if you're taking it home when outdoor temperatures are in the 30s F. You don't want it to get chilled.
