You’ll be lost for words at the sheer petal perfection of this dreamboat when it takes it’s time to shine in your home in the middle of winter.

You can expect multiple big and bountiful blooms per flower stem.
Amaryllis 'Double Dream' is not only dreamy in looks, but it’s a dream to grow too. While collectors love having this impressive variety and its accompanying bragging rights, these plants are easy to grow and suitable for beginner gardeners too. Hippeastrum 'Double Dream' is a low maintenance indoor plant which will bring weeks of wonderful colour to your home as two or sometimes even three stems emerge over winter. Keep it as a houseplant after flowering and usually it will grow back and flower again the following year. Give this remarkable Hippeastrum a try—you must see this one in real life to believe it’s not a fantasy!

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.
