Nursery contributed plant descriptions

There's a whole line of amaryllis that have names that start with "Nymph". This is the original and the one from which all the other genes have been selected. Fully double, white blooms etched in a soft salmon red and encircling the flower center with gently cupped petals. Graceful and shapely.
