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 only ship 1 large blooming bulb size to ensure well proportioned plants, which are guaranteed to produce large vibrant blooms for you. Bulb circumference dictates the bulb size. The larger the bulb, the more flowers it will produce. 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 Amaryllis kit comes with everything you need to grow this exotic plant: 1 large Minerva Amaryllis bulb, a 5 in. x 7 in. trendy, metallic red, metal, artisan decorative outer planter, a 5 in. nursery pot, planting medium and a set of growing instructions. As bulbs are essentially storage mechanisms, they already contain everything needed to produce flowers.
