Bloom Amaryllis, Bright and Beautiful

The students have potted their Amaryllis bulbs.  There are a few different kind such as White Christmas, Cinderella, Apple Blossom and Red Lion.  The students compared the planting and watering directions between the different types of flowers.  The students determined that the directions were the same.The students are keeping a journal about the growth of their flowers.  For the first entry, the students wrote down the planting and watering directions.  We also researched how long it will take them to bloom.  It should be between 6 to 8 weeks.  The students also drew pictures of their plants and measured the length of the leaves in order to track the growth of their plants.  Our room should be ablazed with beautiful, colorful flowers in December.
