Know before you buy
When grown indoors, you can expect this bulb to bloom within 50 to 70 days after planting.
Plant the bulb with the top one-third exposed above the soil line. This helps prevent rot and ensures the bulb has the proper environment to sprout.
The Amaryllis 'Doublet' is only hardy outdoors in USDA Zones 9-11. If you live in a colder region, you should grow it as an indoor houseplant.
Indoors, place the bulb in a spot with bright, direct light. If planting outdoors in a suitable climate, it prefers a location with partial sun.
The flower stalks on the 'Doublet' variety typically reach up to 24 inches in height.
