Why We Love It

‘Apple Blossom’ is one of the prettiest amaryllis varieties, offering soft pastel tones that complement both modern and traditional interiors. Each bulb produces multiple flowers on tall, sturdy stems, lasting for weeks and bringing lightness and freshness into the winter home.

Its gentle colouring makes it a versatile choice, beautiful on its own or paired with deeper-toned Hippeastrums such as Red Lion for contrast. Easy to grow and rewarding, it’s also a perfect choice for gifting.

 

How to Plant & Grow

• Plant indoors between October and January.
• Use a pot just slightly larger than the bulb, with free-draining compost.
• Position the bulb so that the top third remains above the soil.
• Water sparingly until growth appears, then increase watering gradually.
• After flowering, allow the leaves to grow and feed regularly to replenish the bulb for next year.
