Amaryllis Kit Red Lion With Iron Brass Fluted Planter – Van Zyverden

Product Description

Hippeastrum (commonly known as Amaryllis) are popular for their indoor holiday color and are often given as gifts from October through January. They are easy to grow and are impressive flowers. As bulbs are essentially storage mechanisms, they already contain everything needed to produce flowers. They are tropical and subtropical. But best of all, they can be induced to re-bloom indoors for years to come. Our Amaryllis kit comes with everything one needs to grow this exotic plant: One Amaryllis bulb, sized 26/28 cm, a nursery pot with drainage, planting medium, greenish sheet moss for top dressing, and an iron ribbed brass finish like decorative planter, sized approximately 6″x 6″x 6″.

• Care Instructions: Hippeastrum (Amaryllis) is a tender bulb and needs to be planted in pots indoors throughout most of North America. To grow indoors as a house plant proceed as follows: Expand the soil block(s) which comes with the kit, following the included directions, then fill about half the pot with the medium. Set the bulb atop the soil, filling in with soil around the bulb to maintain their position. About the top third of the bulb should be left exposed above the soil level, leaving room in the pot for watering. Amaryllis bulbs like room temperatures, and exposure to sunshine will keep them shorter. As the flower stalk grows towards the light, rotate the pot frequently to prevent toppling. Keep soil moist. Sit back and enjoy!
