What is it?
These little orange objects (there’s 2) appeared out of my amaryllis bulb after it bloomed the second year. What are they? I don’t remember them coming up last year.

Those two eruptions from the base of your bulb look like the remains of last year's stem. No need to worry and cut them back to the soil level if you want. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
