![]() They call them Easter lilies only because they're forced bulbs, made to bloom indoors at Easter time.
Here's mine this morning... ![]() : ) |

![]() Now for something completely different. I had bought a very young Alocasia odora a while ago. All you could see was a hint of green coming up from the soil. I planted it behind the waterfall in a shady part of the garden that only gets morning sun. As it grew I realized it was definitely not an Alocasia, but it looked more like a canna or a heliconia. Today I have my answer, I found these gorgeous blooms on my heliconia. My guess is heliconia psittacorum, variety ?? Chime in if you have a clue. To me it looks like a yellow heliconia psittacorum Andromeda.
And just for s**** and giggles, here's the plant's label.
