Merry Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 The bulbs bloomed beautifully during Christmastime and produced flowers a couple more times during January. But now there are only green shoots that are growing taller and taller. When will they bloom again? In the spring or not until next winter? They are in pots by the way. I'm thinking of cutting off the green shoots and storing the bulbs in a cool place but if they will bloom this spring, then I'd rather plant them outside now.

Jane in NC Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Your amaryllis will survive outdoors if you are in a temperate climate. Here is an article that may help you in the reblooming process: http://flowergardens.suite101.com/article.cfm/how_to_rebloom_an_amaryllis_bulb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisabeth in IL Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 My mom has several amaryllis bulbs. They bloom once a year but hers bloom at different times. One is blooming right now. Last spring one bloomed and one bloomed during the summer. All 4 or 5 of her bulbs came from the one original plant that she was given years ago.

Merry Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 What did your mother do with the bulb? Plant it or what? I'd like for mine to grow in the garden but how? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mother just has them in pots in her kitchenette area so they are like any other potted plant that you would have in your house. They along with most of her house plants go outside in the summer. She doesn't seem to do anything special with them other then give them a bit of fertalizer ever so often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
