Description
Experience the joys of spring a little early with Amaryllis 'Apple Blossom'. This chipper character will bring those cheery spring vibes to your home in the middle of winter with blooms the colour of apple blossom (but of course enormous in comparison). Hippeastrum work like magic to illuminate your home and lift the mood in winter with their magnificent, exotic flowers. The subtle pink blush on these petals is a welcome splash of colour, yet isn’t too dominating if you prefer to keep things toned down. Top-size Hippeastrum 'Apple Blossom' bulbs provide a long-lasting and fantastically large display – you’ll just love this one, it’s impossible not to!
Believe it or not, this exceptionally beautiful Hippeastrum is really easy to grow. Pot up your Amaryllis 'Apple Blossom' in autumn, position in a warm, bright room and just give it a little water from time to time. The bulb will work on the beauty, so all you then need to do is give it a little time to grow.
