Our little winter garden is in full bloom right now with four beautiful white Amaryllis flowers on one stalk.
This is the most we’ve ever seen at once—and there are even more buds about to open!

I had to find out more about this plant, and found this titbit:
“These stunning flowers are believed to mean pride, strength and determination as they stand tall above all other winter blooms. Amaryllis is also a Greek name which means ‘to sparkle’.”
I also found out the difference between titbit and tidbit!
“Americans do not say tidbit because they would titter at BrE titbit. Americans say tidbit because that’s the original form of the word. It’s a really easy one to blog about because I’ve said it before in the comments of another post, where another reader repeated the myth that tidbit arose from American prudishness.”
