Tanay ji, Thanks for narrowing down the ID to Hippeastrum vittatum
The descriptions of the plant posted by me agrrees with the plant shared in plantoftheweek.org http://www.plantoftheweek.org/week415.shtml However, the pacific bulb society web site contradicts. Hippeastrum vittatum, is displayed as a different flower alltogether http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/LegacyBulbsFive (theHippeastrum vittatum, are considered to be large white flowers, striped with red, native to the Peruvian Andes. ) Hippeastrum puniceum, an orange flower appears to be a close match. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/LegacyBulbsFive Regards / Thanks again.
