Description

Be more flamboyant with your winter plant décor, Amaryllis 'Red Peacock' is outright flashy with double the petal-power adding to its piercing good looks. This Hippeastrum will astound you and your house guests when it throws out a huge, chunky stem topped with multiple double blooms formed for extravagant silky petals in the most intense shade of red. The extra special Amaryllis 'Red Peacock' is one to show off in the most prominent part of your home—put it in the spotlight and it won’t disappoint! 

Amaryllis typically flower at any point during winter, and will react to temperatures. This means you can plant your Amaryllis 'Red Peacock' in autumn and speed up its progress by placing it in a warmer position, or slow it down by moving it to a cooler room. Aside from potting up your bulb in autumn, there’s very little else you need to do—just water occasionally and wait for it to start growing. Amaryllis 'Red Peacock' are so easy to grow, yet produce such rewarding results. If you haven’t tried growing an especially fancy, top quality Amaryllis before, you should make this year the year that you do!
