  • Quick Tips:
    • Planting Period October until the end of April. Flowering Period Late December until the end of June. Flowering time is 7-10 weeks. Larger bulbs produce more flowers. Always store un-planted bulbs in a cool place between 40-50 deg. F.
    Amaryllis-One of a Kind
    Of all flowering bulbs, amaryllis are the easiest to bring to bloom. This can be accomplished indoors or out, and over an extended period of time. The amaryllis originated in South America's tropical regions and has the botanical name Hippeastrum. The large flowers and ease with which they can be brought to bloom make amaryllis popular and in demand worldwide. The amaryllis comes in many beautiful varieties including various shades of red, white, pink, salmon and orange. There are also many striped and multicolored varieties, usually combining shades of pink or red with white.
    Preparation for Planting
    The base and roots of the bulb should be placed in lukewarm water for a few hours. Remember, if you cannot plant the bulbs immediately after receiving them, store them at a cool temperature between 40-50 degrees F.

    Amaryllis belladonna flowers Amaryllis is a bulbous plant, with each bulb being 5-10 cm in diameter. It has several strap-shaped, green leaves , 30-50 cm long and 2-3 cm broad, arranged in two rows. The leaves are produced in the autumn or early spring in warm climates depending on the onset of rain and eventually die down by late spring. The bulb is then dormant until late summer. The plant is not frost-tolerant, nor does it do well in tropical environments since they require a dry resting period between leaf growth and flower spike production. From the dry ground in late summer (August in zone 7) each bulb produces one or two leafless stems 30-60 cm tall, each of which bears a cluster of 2 to 12 funnel-shaped

    Amaryllis bulbs are among the easiest plants to grow we'll show you how. But first, you should know that an Amaryllis is really a Hippeastrum. Hippeastrums are in the genus Ammaryllidacea (a family of flowering plants) which is the source of the confusion. The true Amaryllis consists of a single species, Amaryllis belladonna, also known as "naked ladies". However, there are more than 50 spe cies of Hippeastrum. We will use the popular name , Amaryllis, though you will also see them referred to, more correctly, as Hippeastrum.

    Amaryllis Makes Memorable Holiday Gift
    Released: 12-18-97 B. Rosie Lerner
    Extension Consumer Horticulture Specialist If you're shopping for a striking gift for that special gardener, the amaryllis may be just what you're looking for. The amaryllis is a tender bulb that can't survive outdoors even in the mildest Indiana winters. But it can be grown indoors to provide a dramatic show of color during dreary winter months. The showy flowers range from crimson, scarlet, rose, lavender, white or bi-colored combinations. Although each plant may only produce one cluster of two to four blooms, individual blossoms can reach up to 8 inches in diameter at their peak. The flowers are borne on a tall, stout stem about 2 feet tall. If you want the plant to be in bloom in time for the holiday, buy one that is already in bud or just beginning to flower. The blooms will last longer if you keep the plant in a cool location, around 65 degrees F. If kept in warmer environments, the flower stalks may become weak and require staking to support the weight of the blossoms. If you opt instead for an amaryllis bulb kit, you just might have blooms in time for Valentine's Day! Bulbs should be potted containers that are only a little larger in diameter than the bulbs themselves. Be sure containers provide drainage so excess water can escape. Pour a layer of good-quality potting soil mix into the bottom of the container, then place the bulb so that the pointed end is facing up. Water thoroughly to establish good bulb-to-soil contact. Then place in a sunny windowsill in a cool location, preferably, 55-65 degrees F. The plants should bloom within six to eight weeks.

    Amaryllis Bulbs: Growing Instructions and Care
    Amaryllis bulbs can be grown successfully in gardens as well as pots. Let's take a look at instructions and care needed for growing Amaryllis bulbs. Amaryllis (scientific name Amaryllis belladonna ) is a bulbous plant, commonly planted for its magnificent, bell-shaped flowers (more than 10 cm diameter). It can grow up to 50-60 cm in height; the leaves are strap-shaped (30-50 cm long and 2-3 cm wide). A flowering stalk bears about 2-12 flowers. Due to the morphological similarity of Amaryllis flowers with lilies , the plant is commonly known as as Belladonna Lily or Jersey Lily.
    Amaryllis is known to be cultivated as early as the 18th century. The most widely cultivated Amaryllis varieties include white, pink and red flowers. Early blooming Amaryllis produce flowers during December, whereas other late varieties may flower in January and/or February.

    Waking the Amaryllis
    PAGE 1
    The Amaryllis plant has come out of the closet after it's two month hibernation in the dark. I've stripped away the dead leaves, and started watering/sunshine. It is fun to watch this plant grow every year. I wonder if this year we'll have flowers? Last year it produced two, the year before, four. The anticipation is part of the fun! I'll be taking a picture every few weeks as it develops.
    I was beginning to wonder if we'd lost the amaryllis this yearnothing seemed to be happening for the longest time. But patience is worth the wait! The plant lives! The tip of the new leaves has shown itself. Continued on Page 2

    http://www.ext.nodak.edu/extnews/hortiscope/flowers/amaryllis.htm
    Questions on: Amaryllis Ron Smith, Horticulturist, NDSU Extension Service A: Let them stay where they are. When warm weather settles in, set them outside on an eastern or northern exposure close to the house. Allow them to dry down this fall. More directions are available at http://www.ag.ndsu.edu/pubs/plantsci/landscap/h811w.htm A: These so-called water-blooming kits are a bad idea! If the water cannot drain from the media, it will become stagnant quickly. The container should have some holes in it to facilitate drainage. When future kits arrive as a gift, assuming you can't or won't try talking her out of it, forget the container it arrives in and plant the bulb in a pot with drainage and sterile soil. It should respond beautifully. Also, if you allow seed pods to form after blooming, much of the energy the plant produces through photosynthesis goes into making the seed and not roots or new growth. I suggest removing the flower as soon as it is spent. Q: I enjoy your blog on growing amaryllis. I have a comment and a question. For the past couple of years, my girlfriend has given my mother and me an amaryllis bulb for Christmas. To my chagrin, she buys the kind that's to be grown in water! I don't have the heart to tell her that I hate that system. Therefore, I wait until the blooms have faded and then plant them in dirt with fertilizer and water. Am I doing this right? (e-mail reference) A: I must be living in a cave because I've never seen an amaryllis grown in water. However, from what you have told me, it sounds as if you are doing everything right after the bloom is past. Have the results been what you want them to be? (The response is below.)

    • Bamboo Stalk
    • Patience

    Planting a New Amaryllis Bulb
  • Make sure the pot you chose is just large enough for the bulb. Generally a 5 - 7" pot will work fine. The bulb needs to feel crowded to bloom.
  • Partially fill the pot with potting mix and place the bulb so that top third of it will be exposed when you fill in potting soil around the sides of the pot.
  • Place a bamboo stalk along side the bulb. The flowers can get top heavy and inserting the stake now will help you avoid damaging the bulb and roots later.
  • Water well.
  • Place the pot in bright, indirect light and keep the soil moist, but not wet.
  • A thick flower stalk should shoot up within a few weeks. The flat leaves will follow as the flower stalk matures.

    How to Grow and Care for an Amaryllis Plant
    Hippeastrum Plants
    Nothing can break the gloom, like a beautifully blooming House Plant in the dead of winter.
    Of all of the flowering bulbs, the Amaryllis is the easiest to force into bloom. The large size (up to six inch blooms) of the showy flowers, as well as the ease with which they can be grown in the home make the Amaryllis extremely
    popular as a gift plant during the holiday seasons
    Amaryllis plants come in many beautiful colors including shades of red, white, pink, salmon and orange. There are also many bi-colored varieties, combining shades of pink or red with white.
    Amaryllis is a tender bulb which originated in the Andes mountains of South America. Therefore, unfortunately, it can only be grown outdoors, year round in USDA zones 9-11 . In other zones, the potted plants may be moved outdoors after the danger of frost has passed but must be brought back indoors in September.
    Growing pre-planted Amaryllis plants
    Amaryllis may be purchased as individually packaged or bulk bulbs, but more often are sold in a pre-potted condition. The pre-planted Amaryllis gift boxes normally take no more initial effort than simply watering them with room temperature water to bring them into growth. Avoid getting water on the nose of the bulb. Keep the potting medium moist, but not wet.

    PLANTING RECOMMENDATIONS
    Amaryllis bulbs can be purchased at your local nursery, or sold in kits complete with soil and pot. The only time I can recommend buying a kit is if they are on super clearance sale, and you can pick them up for $5 or less. I say this because the included soil is poor and the pot is usually a cheap plastic throwaway that will tip over with the slightest provocation. Use quality materials and you will not be disappointed.
    The Basics, or "What's In a Pot?"
    Let's start with the pot. You should use a sturdy clay pot that leaves 1 or 2 inches space between the pot and the bulb. Let's use a concrete example for illustrative purposes. Say you have a bulb that is 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Your pot should then be 5 1/2 inches, or to use a standard size, 6 inches. Do not use a pot that is sharply tapered or very shallow because you want room for decent root growth. ** UPDATE ** This year, as an experiment, I am trying potting in much larger pots. As an example, if you get a really nice bulb the size of a large orange, try potting it in a 10"-12" pot. It has come to my attention that keeping the amaryllis pot-bound will keep it from producing off-shoots, but if you want a showy display in a few years, then pot the bulb in a large pot and eventually it will grow many "baby bulbs" which will fill the pot up! We will keep you posted on how this experiment turns out.

How to Make Your Amaryllis Bloom Again Amaryllis have become increasingly popular holiday gift plants, undoubtedly because the bulbs bloom very freely indoors and they are affordable. The large, showy flowers make a bold statement and are available in an increasing variety of colors, shapes, and sizes that fit almost any taste. Amaryllis are not difficult to grow and may be brought into bloom every year if the plants are treated correctly. To understand the process, it may help to understand the plant and its native environment. Amaryllis are bulbs of the genus Hippeastrum that are native to tropical and subtropical areas of the Americas. Some species grow in rock crevices in savannas that have distinct dry and wet seasons; others grow in high plateau regions that have cool weather for most of the year. One species from Brazil is epiphytic and grows in trees in montane forests with no soil around the roots. Many species have been hybridized to produce today's hybrids, and most of these species experience warm, humid conditions with abundant rainfall for most of the year and a short, cooler dry season. To make your amaryllis bloom again, you simply have to mimic the conditions that nature provides. Here's an easy step-by-step plan to get your amaryllis to bloom again: 1. Keep it cool through the holidays.

    Service to God in Life
    • Also known as:
        Goddess of Spring Spirit of Springtime Persephone (Greek) Proserpine (Roman)
      "Often people have referred to Me, the Spirit of Spring, as dancing over the flowers and the grass with a wreath of flowers in My hair, touching here and there a bush, a flower, a shrub, a tree and sort of flitting about in an ineffectual but perhaps graceful manner. "Beloved ones, as the Spirit of Springtime, let Me remind you that for nine hundred years before the first Great Root Manu brought the 'Holy Innocents' to the Earth, I experimented with the development of the most beautiful possible foliage, flower, bird-life , grass, sea, air - until when the Earth was ready to be inhabited - She had a magnificent garment and was so like unto Heaven's Kingdom that the first individuals who came forth from the Heart of God hardly knew the difference between the Heavenly Realms and the Earth. That was many millions of years ago, so there is a little bit of constancy and positive energy in that Service which I render. "I thank you for your thoughts of the Springtime. I shall create again with the help of the elementals and Our Lord Maha Chohan such a magnificent perfection on this Earth for Our Beloved Ascended Master Saint Germain as the crowning gift to His Golden Age before I take My departure to another Star. . . .
