That's lovely.
I'm in love.....
Nice. I like that one.
Sylvia, where did you find it?
Hi I donīt know where the orgin country is, but we have had it here in Sweden in some families since many many years, it called "Panteramaryllis" here, (panther-amaryllis)
Iīve got mine from an old lady for more than 25 years ago.
Very fresh and healthy, flower one to two times a year, evergreen.
That's wonderful! I got my first species from my grandmother through a cousin. I love the "passing on" of plants.
A glorious species, H. pardinum! Just magnificent!
Thanks for sharing.
R.
I am so lusting after this one too!

Yes it is a beauty and give many babybulbs most every other year, I shall to this winter to get seeds on it, I have two buds left,
~Sylvia
If you ever get extra seeds, Sylvia, there are 3 of us that would love some!!
Yes, I shall think about that :o)
~Sylvia
Think hard, Sylvia! ;-)))
Beautiful...I have not seen so many dots in an amaryllis flower. How big is the flower Sylvia?
Not so big, about 10-11 centimetre (3,94 to 4,33 inch), and the flowerstem only about 40 to 45 centimetre (15,75 to 17,72 inch).
Yes many many dots. It is my best amaryllis I really love it.
~Sylvia
Perfect symmetry...
Well, let see if I got any seeds, It have never give seeds earlier only babybulbs

Have you ever pollinated your flowers?
We must sometimes play the part of the bee to help "Mother Nature" do her work. :-)
I can trade seeds later on.
You have a rarely seen gem there!
R.
Hi R
I do it sometime with cross to other species, I did it in november with pardinum and reticulatum 'striatifolium' but it didīnt work.
I shall try to play bee as I say above with the two buds which are left.
