Well, now I am more confused that I was:
https://www.ourhouseplants.com...
https://wimastergardener.org/a...
I would like to know if I am growing Amaryllis or Hipperastrums.
Mine grow outdoors and come back year after year, they do not tend to rot even with lots of watering or being planted in very wet conditions. I have always thought of them as Amaryllis and never thought they might be Hippeastrums,
I would think there must be some difference other than being grown outdoors. I do grow Belladonna Lily or Naked Lady, strange thing is I never thought of them as being Amaryllis. I guess here in my location the name Amaryllis is the only name I have heard associated with the plants I grow.
