Amaryllis is a lovely flower - it looks something like a lily, but it's prettier, and comes in vibrant reds and oranges. It grows from a bulb, is easy to 'force' and grow indoors, and at one time, it was known as the 'compass plant' because it usually has four blossoms, one facing each point of the compass.
It's a winter flower usually red but it can come in variegated colors like pink.
