Yay for getting Amaryllis bulbs in the mail!

And this year, bonus Daffodil bulbs, too.

My awesome cousin Bill Fox sends bulbs to the women of the family every year around this time. And each year, I’m surprised and delighted. I’m still not used to the fact that that this is a thing now. But I love it!

I can’t wait to watch this flower grow!

Thanks, Billy! You’re the best!

Hi! My name is Liza. Welcome to my blog and thanks for visiting! I’m a Midwestern gal now living in Arizona, after many years of living in and owning a plant care business in New Mexico.

Plants are living, breathing creatures, and if they’re indoor plants, they are 100% dependent on human care. They cannot water themselves.

Do you know which type he sent you? That’s really awesome to get one like that every year. I really wanna try Chico and Butterfly, but I didn’t want to buy any expensive ones til I could keep the commons ones alive and get them to rebloom. We’ll find out soon if that’s going to happen from the two I bought last year…if a success then I’ll go ahead and order Chico and Butterfly for next winter. Wish me luck lol.

Carmen, no, I don’t know what type he sent. I’m sure it’s not as fancy as the Chicos. But if you want one of those, you should order them right after the season so you can get them on sale. Then you’ll be all set for next year and will have saved money. Win-win!
