Not White Peacock

Palm Coast, FL(Zone 9a)

This is the "White Peacock" that I got from Amaryllis Bulb Company. I don't think so, not with all that pink. I'm guessing "Rainbow" since they also sell that cultivar. Possibly Aphrodite. Any body want to venture an opinion?

It looks like many web-pix of 'Aphrodite' and a few of 'Sweet Surrender'.

I haven't read anything about a tendency (however rare) of 'White Peacock' to have pink or rose blushes and have never seen a pic of one with even the slightest hint of color, so I'm thinking something is wrong somewhere. :-((

Raydio: Do you know where to find a photo of Sweet Surrender?

I don't think they are selling amaryllis anymore, but one of my file pix is from:
http://countryroaddaylilies-amaryllis.com/amaryllis_cultivars/sweet_surrender.htm

AFAIK, that is the only place I have seen this name mentioned, but I have a picture on file where the poster thought the pictured flower might be 'Sweet Surrender'. The pic dates from 12-06 and I don't know where I got it...it could have been here at DG...
