Before the spring ends

This year is quite unusual for everyone out in the world.Since nature has yet again proved its superiority in  controlling our life. The  year began marking the longest possible winter in my region with spring being on and off with western disturbances altering  the weather pattern every week .But finally heat of summer can be felt with temperature soaring high day by day .

Amaryllis lily season

Its always rewarding when some of the flowering bulbs withstand worse of weather conditions mainly extreme hot weather throughout the year and still bring amazing blooms without requiring much  care unlike other flowering bulbs.
Amaryllis lily is one well adapted plant to the weather of  our region.
