new babies....

just about anyone who would read this blog is aware of my fondness for plants. well, here are the newest additions to my 'blossoming' family (or at least representative images of them). note, the pink one has not been definitively identified, and the chartreuse one is my/amy conley's (fellow orchid lover) best guess. corrections and/or further insights are welcome. care tips are also appreciated as i am a novice with this plant family, and i am somewhat apprehensive about my abilities to help them thrive...

Do you know anything about amaryllis? Mine is looking somewhat sickly, and I thought it was supposed to keep its color in the leaves until fall :(

Sorry, but I have no tips for keeping plants alive, either. Some friends gave us an African Violet, and well, it's looking pretty sad already. Good luck!
