↑These are all in my yard, the top two are Violets, growing wild in the grass, the yellow ones are Jonquils, and I have tons of them.
Now a couple of weeks ago @owasco made a post about Amaryllis.
I shared some insights and history of me and my amaryllis.
So previously, this was where they were:

↑These two are from seeds that My Mama and I hybridized/cross bred many years ago, I got the bulbs from my sister about 3 yrs ago, and have never seen them bloom

THIS pot↑ was a gift in 2007, it had ONE large bulb, in one pot.
I've since repotted it several times as it keeps dividing, and I've given away quite a few babies from it.
↓This is what they all look like NOW↓

The ones on the left are the original Red ones that I was given in 2007, the ones on the right are the "Ms Margaret" named for our mama
It looks like they may turn out pink, or white with red veins
↓This↓ is what the original reds looked like in their prime, which I hope now that I am settled for good, I can get them back to this sort of vibrancy
