Earlier in the month I posted an update on my two surviving amaryllis bulbs...
At the time, a few months after repotting them, they surprised me by suddenly developing stalks - but only one had leaves.
I brought them into my sunny sitting area, where I could keep an eye on them. Within a few days, both stalks shot up in height - but only one plant has leaves.
Now it looks as if the leafless one is beginning to open up... before the one with leaves!
I searched for information about amaryllises without leaves and found this comment on the NGA gardening website:
So it's not unheard of! Good! Now I'm waiting to see it bloom!!
When the flowers fade and die, I'll cut the stalk back to the bulb. Hopefully it will then develop leaves.
