I’m hoping this note gets to someone who can help me with my amaryllis. This is the first year I’ve tried to nurse a bulb along to bloom for a 2nd year.  I thought I’ve done everything right.  It was outside all summer collecting nutrients.  I stopped feeling it in August and stopped watering it on Oct. 1st.  The leaves have been turning yellow and I’ve been trimming them off.  Today, I removed the last two yellow leaves to move it to 6 weeks of cool, dark dormancy.  BUT I SEE A NEW LEAF (about an inch) COMING OUT OF THE BULB.  That was a bit of a curveball!  I put it in a paper bag in a cool, dark place BUT WHAT ABOUT THAT NEW LITTLE LEAF???

I will be grateful for any help.
