Hippeastrum (commonly known as Amaryllis) are popular for their indoor holiday color and are often given as gifts from October through January. They are super easy to grow and are most impressive flowers. Their huge blossoms can measure up to 8 In. across. We ship our Amaryllis bulbs as bulbs - not kits - nor pre-planted, so that you can pot them up yourself in your favorite pot. We only ship one large blooming bulb size to ensure well-proportioned plants, which produce large, vibrant blooms for you. Bulb circumference dictates the bulb size. The larger the bulb, the more flowers it will produce. As bulbs are essentially storage mechanisms, they already contain everything needed to produce flowers. They are Tropical and subtropical. All you will need to do is plant them up and water. But best of all, they can be induced to re-bloom indoors for years to come. Our economy mixture - a Van Zyverden value best buy - comes in a custom field run size - 24/28 cm - and consists of a random pot luck mixture of the varieties we handle. Both double and single varieties of any and all colors could be included in this surprise mixture. Half the fun will be the anticipation of what colors they will bloom for you.
