Amaryllis belladonna on the wiki

Hi all,
We have a lot of hybrid and cultivar pictures of Amaryllis belladonna on
the wiki, but not much of the plain species. I added a picture my husband
took of some we saw blooming a couple of weeks ago on one of our walks. As
I have said before they have naturalized on California's North Coast and a
lot of people who live here think they are native. Blooming as they were
with the ocean in the background they were really beautiful. They were
actually in someone's "natural" garden meaning that there wasn't a garden,
mostly a few shrubs and brown grass since as Susan recently wrote some of
us in California still haven't had any rain in a long time (May was the
last time here except for heavy drizzle a few times during the summer and
minutes of some rainfall this month that produced significant rainfall in
other parts of the state.) I added the picture on the top of the page.
