My first love has always been plant science, cross-breeding and genetic research. This flower just bloomed for the first time a few days ago. It is the result of about 20 years and myriads of seeds among 3 generations. Commonly known as an "Amaryllis," it is actually an "Hippeastrum." I've dubbed it "Flossie" after my dad's oldest sister who loved red. You can't see it well because of the curling petals, but each has a small white tip.
