I asked a question in one of your other videos, but I think this one is going to answer my questions really well. My only specimen has leaves running about 4 feet tall. It's on a window sill and has lots of support to be strong and stable. Its in a 4" plastic pot but reaches the full height of the window frame. I'll go watch the video now.
I really enjoyed this video. Glad you stressed to leave the foliage on. I cringe when I see folks chopping it off before it has died back naturally. I look forward to seeing a video with your blooms during the winter. 🌺
I tend to cut back the green eaves by half when placing in storage.. to prevent mold issues.
Thanks for the info
You’re welcome!
Some say to leave half the roots so the bulb won't have to spend its energy growing new roots, which allows bigger blooms. Do you always cut off all the roots? This is first year I am preparing for dormancy. I like spring blooming.
Thank you tyler. Could you do videos on calla lilies?
Great video thank you!
Youre welcome! 🤗
Very informative
Thanks 😊
Hi Tyler! Thanks for the information. Loved watching your videos. Yesterday I rescued about 85 very large amaryllis bulbs from an outdoor flower bed around an older house that was going to be demolished and they would have been destroyed. Would it be okay to trim the foliage and roots and store them in dried pine shavings and place them in some dark tubs in the basement for the winter? Or should I put them back in the ground again and cover them with heavy mulch and let them winter outside? I don't have enough space to pot every one and keep in the basement.
85?!? That sounds amazing! They don’t need to be potted up for dormancy! That advice is for those who already have them potted up. No need to trim foliage. Garage could be another option.
Thanks for the informative video ! I'm getting ready to bring mine in and I wasn't for certain what to do with it.Your video has helped me alot =)
Glad I could help! 🥰✨🪴
Tyler; Have you attempted to grow-on some of the smaller bulbs w/o forcing dormancy? This Winter I think I'll do just that to 'bulk up' some of the babies. of course I won't expect blooms next year.. but the bulb should benefit? 🏳🌈
Thank you so much I thought I was killing my plant!
Of course! Thanks for watching!
When do you fertilize ? Mine never rebloom; only grow beautiful green leaves. Maybe I should leave them in the garage longer than November 1st
You should put them into dormancy for at least 2 months if not a bit more (up to 3 months)
Do you bring your bulbs outside for the summer
Yes
@@TylerMossop Thank you 😊
@@PhilCollectibles of course 🥰
Hi Tyler I’m curious 🤨 my bulb is in dormancy and has shrunk, is it normal? My bulb is very firm
Could be - they are more than likely OK
@@TylerMossop Thank you 😊
@@PhilCollectibles you’re welcome!
Hello Tyler I’m curious to know my amaryllis is in the basement and is in dormancy, my question is when I take it out of dormancy and give It a drink will the bulb get a little bigger because of the water
They need to be in dormancy for 8 weeks give or take. You don’t water them until you pot them up and see some new growth
@@TylerMossop I know,
after the 8 weeks and I give it a drink of water would the bulb get a little bigger in Circumference because it is being watered
@@TylerMossop Does it ever happen that people don’t see new growth after 8 weeks but once they pot them up and give them water they see new growth
@@PhilCollectibles why are you worried about the size of the bulb?
@@PhilCollectibles I don’t think so. You really don’t need to water them until that new growth sprouts. They will be getting lots of light once out of dormancy
When you said the basement somewhere cool and dark, what degrees should mine be exposed to
I’m thinking 10•C or 50•F in and around
You could shorten that up a bit
I decided to put mine in the fridge without apples, is this safe. The temperature. The soil has been dry for over a month
I’m not quite sure what you’re asking here. The bulbs should be fine with a cool temperature-a cold fridge is more cold than required but if you live somewhere extremely hot maybe that would make sense. Remember it’s important to keep them away from light as well.
Too Short!
