Amaryllis

I purchased two amaryllis bulbs about five years ago at a discount store. I planted them and had them blooming for Christmas. Once the flowers died I kept the plants because I liked the leaves. I had heard that it was hard to get the plant to bloom again - I had read some instructions that just seemed too much to do. So I just kept watering the plants and enjoying the foliage. To my surprise both plants have bloomed every year since.
