I have been advised to get rid of the first amaryllis, this person says that it is red blotch. Here are some pictures and I think maybe that it is why it is not growing as good as the s[IMG=https://img525.imageshack.us/img525/6407/1002923e.jpg][/IMG]

But if you look at the red part in the current picture it does look like something is wrong.

I looked up red blotch, which I had never heard of, but then I don't grow amaryllis. Found this:

Their picture doesn't look just like yours. They do say:

"Keep in mind that any injury to amaryllis tissue usually produces a red pigment, so red streaks, specks or irregular patterns are not always indicative of red blotch, which usually shows definite margins and outlines.â€
