Description
Watch in wonder as Amaryllis 'Dancing Queen' sashays into action with absolute aplomb in the middle of winter! The flamboyant flowers give this Hippeastrum so much character, when it unfurls with those free-spirited, wavy petals it will leave you flabbergasted. With candy-cane colouring, Amaryllis 'Dancing Queen' is full of fun and life to help light up your home during the winter season. Easy to grow and devastatingly gorgeous, you’ll be over the moon with what pops up from one of these big bulbs!
Hippeastrum 'Dancing Queen' is an extra special variety which stands out from the crowd with such an impressive profusion of petals and bold patterns. Each stem produces a veritable bouquet of blooms, and usually each bulb will produce more than one stem in succession to extend the display. It’s simple to grow Hippeastrum, just plant the bulb in a snug-fitting pot, position it in a warm part of your home, water occasionally and wait for the show to begin!
