M is for Magenta

I planted my amaryllis late this year, which means they've bloomed late. It's nice to still have flowers blooming, and this particular amaryllis has the most fantastic magenta colour. Mind you, I wish the bulb itself had been of better quality. It bloomed its heart out but grew no roots, so I won't be able to save it for next year.

I had to capture the last bloom before it was gone.

This is day 7 of Kim Klassen's Inner Circle Alphabet challenge. The Circle is buzzy with the creativity sparked by this challenge. So many amazing images have been created.
