Amaryllis
'Amadeus Candy'
syn. Hippeastrum 'Amadeus Candy'
Prepare to be bowled over by the undeniable charm of Hippeastrum 'Amadeus Candy'. Oozing with romance, it will bring the freshness and delight of a spring garden into your home in the midst of dreary mid-winter. The sophisticated ivory-white petals of Amaryllis 'Amadeus Candy' are softly tipped with delicate rosy-pink, with the two colours blending together seamlessly, as if an artist has just passed with their brush to create an exquisite painting. This Amaryllis will bring a lightness of touch to your home, providing a tasteful focal point, and a note of optimism in the colder months of the year.
If you value subtlety and grace in a flower, but still want a great performer that gives a wow factor a room, then Hippeastrum 'Amadeus Candy' is for you. Its sturdy stems each produce several large flowers radiating outwards, making it a wonderful centre-piece. Even better, whilst the first stems are busy putting on a show for you, you are likely to get a new stem emerging from the bulb, giving you even longer to enjoy these beautiful blooms.

Plant profile
Plant calendar
Use peat-free multipurpose compost and position the bulb with its pointed end upwards. Leave the neck and upper third of the bulb above the compost.
Place the pot indoors in a warm, bright position away from direct heat. Turn it regularly as the stem grows to keep it straight.
Water lightly after planting, then sparingly until growth appears. Increase watering as the plant develops, keeping the compost lightly moist but never waterlogged.
Remove faded flowers, but retain the flower stalk until it yellows. Continue watering and feeding while the leaves remain green to replenish the bulb.
