Not sure the name of it....

But it is huge and beautiful! This was given to Grandpa just before he died and it grew sooooo fast. Unfortunately he never got to see it bloom. But it is so pretty.

I did not crop this one for I want you to see the scale of this thing. We never thought the blooms would be so so big.


P.S. The flag in the case on the window sill is the christian flag that was drapped over grandpas casket and then presented to grandma at the grave site. He was a great preacher. I miss him.


Here is another angle of this wonderful plant.

Amaryllis is what it is.
