MOnica, I have had 2 amaryllis which have come up year after year for at least 5 years. I have them on my kitchen window sill, I let them die down, then keep watering the seemingly dead bulb on and off and suddenly, hey presto, it grows new leaves and then flowers again. One of the bulbs I discovered on somebody else's compost heap, and I rescued it and still have it. A lot of people think they are one time flowerers, but they are mistaken. Like MOnica and the Gardeners Question time people ,who should know better. Best of luck and it costs nothing to try, does it?
