Product Description
Care for Amaryllis Plants:
-
Planting: Choose a well-drained soil mix, such as one part well-rotted manure, one part horticultural grit or sand, and two parts leaf mould. Alternatively, a mix of two-thirds good compost with one-third grit works well. Plant the bulbs in a pot with drainage holes, leaving about one-third of the bulb above the soil surface.
-
Sunlight: Amaryllis thrives in full sun, so place the pot in a bright location with indirect sunlight.
-
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist during the growing season, but avoid overwatering, as soggy soil can lead to bulb rot. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings.
-
Temperature: Maintain a temperature around 20°C for optimal growth. Avoid exposing the plant to extreme cold or heat.
-
Fertilizing: Apply any organic fertilizer regularly during the growing season to promote healthy growth and vibrant blooms.
Harvesting: After flowering, encourage reflowering by cutting old flowers and trimming the stem once it begins to sag. Water and fertilize regularly for 5-6 months until leaves yellow. Trim leaves to 2 inches from the bulb, then store in a cool, dark place for at least 6 weeks. Avoid storing bulbs with apples, as it can harm them.
