What a lovely way to learn something new. Thanks.
oh ok. Thanks for the information.
Picotee's are always so beautiful with their trimmed edges. Wonderful pictures you showed!
Beautiful pictures! You've inspired me to get out the macro lens!
There is an oriental poppy called Picotee that looks like the underskirtings of an upended Mariachi dancer
A very tasteful way to get two colours on one flower. It really works well on your Hippeastrum.I knew the word was associated with more than one colour but hadn't realised about the edging effect.
Beautiful photos which kept me guessing about the plant's identity until you shed light on the mystery. I still call them amaryllis too :)
It must be from the same root as picot edging, used in crochet, a sort of bobbly lacy edging. Lovely photos!
I love the word...and you've illustrated it beautifully! gail
And always useful for a game of scrabble when you're rather vowel-heavy...
Thanks for your comments! Yours inelegantly,HappyMouffetard
