Amaryllis Mixed Colours
These magnificent bulbous plants, botanically known as Hippeastrum, offer a spectacular indoor display with their towering flower stems reaching 45-60 cm in height. Each substantial bulb produces one to two robust stalks, crowned with clusters of impressive, trumpet-shaped blooms that can span up to 20 cm across. The colour palette ranges from pure white through delicate pinks to deep crimsons and rich burgundies, with some varieties featuring striking patterns or picotee edges.
The flowers emerge before or alongside the strap-like foliage, typically producing four blooms per stem. These dramatic plants begin their display approximately six to eight weeks after planting, making them perfect for brightening winter months or creating stunning focal points throughout the year. Each flower head lasts for several weeks, providing long-lasting impact.
Thriving indoors in a bright position away from direct sunlight, Amaryllis appreciate well-draining compost and consistent temperatures. These elegant plants make superb gifts and can be encouraged to flower again in subsequent years with proper care and attention.
