Super Plant!!!

We received this plant as a gift during our ESOL class, it was just a bulb then, and in fact another flower had begun to sprout out while in the pot. We followed the instructions, put it in the pot with water and are letting it grow.

It's only supposed to be 10" tall.... I don't know if it comes from being in the Jerdan house hold or what, but this young whipper snapper has surpassed 24"! Here is a picture:

We have to rotate it daily or else it would not grow straight up. I put a pencil in the bottom so you'd have some perspective. It's really cool! (It's also called an amaryllis)
