Product Description

WHERE TO PLANT

Whether you’re growing indoors or outdoors, it’s essential to locate a spot with plenty of bright light or some light shade.

These ravishing plants thrive in well-drained soil but rot if their feet are left wet, so be sure to amend the soil as necessary.

While they happily grow outdoors all year long in zones 8–10, they shine indoors during the holidays as centerpieces, flowering gifts, and living décor.

If the rooms in your home are too dark, keep your Amaryllis by a well-lit windowsill for the most attractive blooms.

HOW TO PLANT

Typically, Amaryllis bulbs are planted from October to April, depending on the specific variety and your climate. They’ll naturally bloom in the spring and create a spectacular show and can be encouraged to rebloom for the holidays.

For outdoor landscape planting, locate a sunny spot for your Amaryllis, making sure the soil is well-draining with space for 4″ between each bulb.For container planting, select a container that is just 1–2″ wider and a few inches taller than your Amaryllis bulb. If you’re planting multiple bulbs in one container, make sure there’s an inch between each bulb and the side of the container.Plant your bulb with the pointed end facing up and the top inch of the bulb exposed or not covered by soil.Water the soil until it is about as damp as a wrung-out sponge.

HOW TO GROW

Water sparingly until you notice new, green growth emerge from the top. From that point forward, keep the soil about as moist as a wrung-out sponge.Turn your indoor pots every few days to keep the stems growing straight.Snip off flower stems at the base when all blooms on the stem have opened and faded.Leave the foliage in place after the plant finishes blooming and keep the soil moist so the bulb can replenish itself for the next season’s blooms.Apply pine straw mulch during the winter in zone 8 to protect the bulbs from freeze/thaw cycles and remove the mulch in the spring.Store dormant bulbs in a cool, dark, dry place between 40–50°F for a minimum of 8 weeks.
