The Amaryllis Potted Bulb is a large Hippeastrum bulb, ready-planted in a 13 cm pot, that grows tall stems topped with big, trumpet-shaped flowers. It's one of the easiest bulbs to grow indoors, so it suits beginners and keen gardeners alike.
Choose Royal Red for classic deep red blooms, Exotic Striped for patterned petals, Sweet Pink, White or Mixed. Stand the pot somewhere bright and warm, water it lightly at first, and the flower stem soon starts to rise. It makes a bold feature on a windowsill or in a conservatory and a welcome winter gift. Unlike our waxed amaryllis, it grows in compost, so with care it can flower again next year.

Watering Water when the top few centimetres of compost begin to dry, then water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain away. Do not leave the plant sitting in standing water, as consistently wet roots can lead to rot. Growth slows in winter, so reduce watering frequency during cooler, darker months.
Best Growing Conditions Grow in bright, indirect light, ideally at around 15-24°C, away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes. Use a good-quality, well-drained houseplant compost and make sure excess water can drain freely from the pot. Most houseplants perform best with moderate humidity and should be kept away from strong radiator heat.
