Know before you buy
The Minerva variety is known for its impressive scale, producing dramatic flowers that can measure up to 8 inches across.
No, you should only plant the bulb deep enough so that the top third remains exposed above the soil line. This helps prevent the bulb from rotting and encourages healthy growth.
While these bulbs are perfect for bringing vibrant color indoors during the winter, they can be moved outside once the danger of frost has passed, provided they are kept in a spot with sun to partial shade.
Once fully established, the Amaryllis Minerva typically reaches a height between 16 and 26 inches.
For the best results, place your amaryllis in a location that receives bright, indirect light. It thrives in conditions ranging from full sun to partial shade.
