These new leaves are in the middle of the colored bracts, I was amazed to see them, I have never seen anything like that before, I just watered both of the poinsettas and the amaryllis, the one I got from my neighbor on Christmas day is just now starting to grow, I saw some fresh greenery on it. The box says Apple Blossom but who knows, whatever it is I will love it. Everyone hunker down we have one heck of a snowstorm coming and bitterly cold weather after that, so here is hoping everyone has heat, water, and food for quite some time if what they say actually happens. I heard the last time we are supposed to have up to 12 inches of snow, and temps of double digits below zero, they are saying it is supposed to get colder than it has been in 20 years. So here is hoping everyone survives it.
