Description
Each bloom is a bit different from the next
You'll savor the lovely, funnel-shaped blooms of this "sweet" variety for weeks during the cold winter! This attractive double flowering amaryllis develops a tasty watermelon-pink hue with darker veining and hints of white on the petals. Slight variations in colouring result in no two flowers looking exactly the same! Expect about four large, 22 cm blooms resembling peonies on each of its two stout, 40–50 cm scapes. Force this amaryllis indoors during winter, when so few other flowers are blooming, to relish it over the holiday season. Plant it in your favorite container; within only 6–8 weeks, you'll be amazed at all the showstopping flowers. Ships as a 26–28 cm bulb.
