Hi, I am also interested in your apple blossom amaryllis. I have lots of freshly dug flowers to trade if you are interested. Email me at Sjackwheat@aol.com. Thanks

Saw this on the Perennials Forum - posted some info there re cold climate varieties.

I googled "Benjamin Moore Apple Blossom" and on the 3rd page of results, I found a chick's blog, mostly about knitting, with a photo of a room painted AB at the bottom of the page. I won't link to it, cuz I'm not sure if that is right, or wrong, for that matter. I will say that the title of her blog is "Every word's a purl: March 2007". Hope that helps.

Not sure why no one else responded, but if you're still looking for answers I'll say what I would think the issue is, though pictures will get you better advice. First, note that the bulbs often have red spots as a result of physical injury. That said I would also be concerned if I had pealed off an outer layer and found a red spot inside on the bulb. I have a hard time seeing a difference between the red splotch virus and regular damage discoloration so always worry when I see any red. But so far my bulbs have been fine. The white fuzzy stuff does sound like too much moisture is being retained one way or another. Each time you repotted, did you water again? I would not have. I also wait until my pot is bone dry before watering well. I used a flat, wooden coffee stirrer. I keep it in the pot pushed all the way to the bottom. Before watering, I pull it out slowly and check if it is dry or not. If it's bone dry, I water again. I would encourage you to try again if you didn't manage to save these two. I read on here years ago that master gardeners don't reach that level until they've killed at least a thousand plants, or something like that. :-)
