My elderly mom got one of these for a Christmas gift by mail...placed it indoors in indirect light and watered...5 weeks later...3 massive red flowers and another last flower just opening up...really cool plant to brighten up the winter!
My grandpa planted amaryllis indoors every year for the holidays. Red ones, always. Thanks for the reminder and bring back so many fond memories. I am headed to my garden center right now to buy a bulb or two and keep these treasured memories alive throughout the holiday season. Great series idea. Thanks again!
Buy them up when they go on sale after x-mas. I pot them up in one large communal pot, and put them in the sun outside. Water when they need it. The in mid august -zone 5 lay the pot on its side and let the foliage yellow and the chlorophyll feed the bulb. Cut off any dry foliage before you bring them in before the september frost. Then late oct or by nov. 1st . Top dress with a good light potting soil and light water until growth begins . I love saving the orphans that would likewise get tossed. Ive paid as little as 99 cents per bulb. Your videos are excellent.
For years now I’ve gifted amaryllis for family members at Christmas. This year I bought the ones dipped in wax. You don’t have to do ANYTHING other than watch them grow and bloom. They brighten drab winter days! BTW-I loved the video!
Loved the video Laura! I'm a huge fan of your channel, it's so inspiring for me. Since I moved into my own home gardening has become my second biggest hobby (after baking). I binge watch your videos all the time and when I see you've uploaded a new video, I know it's going to be a good day! keep up the good work :-)
hi! Laura I love your videos.they sooo nice. I love aged look on a terracotta pot.its even amazing when it is surrounded by moss. I would be glad if you could do a video on planting gladiolus. thanking you Sheetal..
How long does the blooms normally lasts? My wife received a bulb for a Christmas present. I prepared it and it bloomed this week with 8 blooms of red and white stripes from 2 stalks. Simply beautiful! So, now I am committed to Amaryllst along with my Cannas. Wow, I need a green house now.
Hi Laura and Aaron, I just purchased a Red Lion Amaryllis. It can with a pot with no holes and soil disk. Should I punch holes in the pot for drainage? Love your videos❤ Love watching Benjamin growing up and following in your footsteps with your love of gardening. Can't wait for Baby Girl to arrive. Blessings to you and All of your family during this Holiday Season. ❤❤
Your videos was very informative Thank you. I’m going to plant some. I live in Northern CA it doesn’t get very cold. Can I put them on my covered patio and not have to replant them each year? Blessings
I hope just one thing . Can you share more video about amaryllis flower ? . I really love this kind of plant , but in my country it is so hard to get one collection about them .
Don’t put your amaryllis on the microwave or close to the microwave!!!!!!!!! Lol 😂 I spent a month wondering if they were dead or duds but i went to move them to a different location and they just shot up and started growing so quickly. Just a quick tip so you don’t suffer the same fate ☝🏻
One of my stalks had 6 flowers! I'd post a pic if I could. It was amazing. 💕 so far it has had 2 stalks so i wonder if it's a big or small bulb. Has anyone else experienced 6 on one stalk bloomed together?
Hi thanks for sharing yr great videos but I just wanted to know does it bloom only once even if you live on a tropical island in d Caribbean? Thanks be safe
I have had an amaryllis for 3 years which has rebloomed each year. I never fertilized it, should I do that? If yes, when do I fertilize it? When I am taking it out of dormancy and changing a bit of the top soil? What kind of fertilizer?
I have a lot of bulbs, however I need to plant them in a bed that has the black weed preventer plastic down. My question is, will this cause harm to my plants? I have spent hundreds of dollars to buy these huge bulbs and I do not want to kill them! If anyone knows I would appreciate your input!
Laura, love your videos. So when I went to plant some bulbs in water, I looked at your website first, but I didn't find any. Can you help me? Thanks and keep up the videos....please. :)
Great video - thank you!! Question please -- today is Feb 12 and I planted the bulb on January 12. The leaves have grown to 40 inches but no flower yet!! I've been able to keep them upright using supports. But, they keep growing and they will soon choke me. I'm sure of it. What to do? I wonder if I should cut off or trim off the leaves? Please help me before these lil boogers keep growing and inhale me live.
Interesuje me kada se Amarilis priprema za cvetanje i kada on cveta. Kod nas je zima i on je u kući, da li treba sada da ga presadim i odsečem listove da bi pustio cvet. Hvala puno, veliki pozdrav 😀👍🇲🇪❤️🙋♀️🌹lepa maca 🤗🐈
I planted my amaryllis about a week and a half ago and only watered it the one time when I watered it in. the bloom stalks are about 1 1/2 inches tall already so how often should I be watering them now? and do they ever need fertilizer? if so what type and how often? is bloom booster ok?

You inspired me to make Amaryllis party favors for my mom’s 83rd birthday! First time to try these.

I want to pot up amaryllis and Ship to my family for Christmas gifts. Any suggestions for successfully planting and packing/shipping?

"No kitties on the kitchen counter"
*scratches kitty belly*
😂😂😂
You know he is on that counter everytime she leaves the house
็I'm a big fan of Amaryllis, your channel and Dexter ^^
I wonder if you could show how to make an Amaryllis fairy garden.
Dexter is beautiful and famous. Great video
One of my stalks had 6 flowers! I'd post a pic if I could. It was amazing. 💕 so far it has had 2 stalks so i wonder if it's a big or small bulb. Has anyone else experienced 6 on one stalk bloomed together?
One of mine right now has 7! So it’s possible! Mine are under grow lights indoors. They are beautiful and smell amazing!
very nice voice .... nd luv this vdo
THANK YOU!! GREAT!!! LOVE IT
My Amaryllis plants have too many leaves and no flowers.... They aren't even showing any signs of a flower stalk what could be the reason for this?
Wow... love those clear vases w rocks. where can I get those please?!
Hi thanks for sharing yr great videos but I just wanted to know does it bloom only once even if you live on a tropical island in d Caribbean? Thanks be safe
Thanks for the reminder! I need to do this asap. :D
5-8 weeks??!!?!! Mine has been in the pot for six months!!! I have leaves growing but no flowers. :(
Is this the best time to plant paper whites too? Love your videos!!!
Finally good info... Thank you, and Happy Christmas!
What have we done wrong when masses of leaves come up and no blooms.
I have had an amaryllis for 3 years which has rebloomed each year. I never fertilized it, should I do that? If yes, when do I fertilize it? When I am taking it out of dormancy and changing a bit of the top soil? What kind of fertilizer?
Should I feed my Amaryllis? The bulbs are 2 years old. Thank you 😊
I have a lot of bulbs, however I need to plant them in a bed that has the black weed preventer plastic down. My question is, will this cause harm to my plants? I have spent hundreds of dollars to buy these huge bulbs and I do not want to kill them! If anyone knows I would appreciate your input!
Can I keep them in a cold greenhouse over the winter? How cold hardy are they?
Hi dexter!!!
How do i care for mums during fall and winter in the southeast of USA? Please help! Thanks.
Is it ok to grow Amaryllis under regular light like in the kitchen, Thank you
Which place is the best to keep Amarallys ? In the shed or in the sun ?
Laura, love your videos. So when I went to plant some bulbs in water, I looked at your website first, but I didn't find any. Can you help me? Thanks and keep up the videos....please. :)
This is a great video. I do have a different question though do you have a peace lily and what's the best way to care for them?
Great video - thank you!! Question please -- today is Feb 12 and I planted the bulb on January 12. The leaves have grown to 40 inches but no flower yet!! I've been able to keep them upright using supports. But, they keep growing and they will soon choke me. I'm sure of it. What to do? I wonder if I should cut off or trim off the leaves? Please help me before these lil boogers keep growing and inhale me live.
Mc Cc lol, I hope you are still alive!
How deep is that bigger pot? 5 inches?
I will be potting 3 large pots with 3 amaryllis plants each. What size, depth and width, do you recommend?

Question - should the pot have drain holes?
Ok now I have to try this. Where can I get these bulbs? Are these plants safe for cats and dogs. I have a cat that nibbles on my plants.
These are poisonous, so keep them well out of your kitty's reach! :)
Well thank you .. I have killed mine ever time I have tried ..
How long the blooming will last? I live in Montreal (Canada) which is a zone 5A. I will keep it inside the house.
nice video
I just loved these tulips ,but I couldn’t find them in our country ....😡😡😡😡😡
How to store them after bloom is over I live in zone 11-12 in India
Pls advise my amaryllis bulb looks like rotting in the soil
