Description
Amaryllis 'Red Amazone' is the botanical equivalent of a dramatic entrance—exotic, eye-catching, and impossible to ignore. With its slender, elegantly pointed petals drenched in vibrant red, this variety brings a touch of tropical flair to even the greyest winter windowsill. At the heart of each bloom, the red deepens to a sultry, dark crimson, drawing the eye inward to where even the stamens keep to the theme, blazing red from tip to base. Amaryllis 'Red Amazone' is a flower that knows exactly how to hold a gaze.
Despite its wild looks, Amaryllis 'Red Amazone' is surprisingly easy to grow and rewards even the most relaxed of gardeners with a show that’s nothing short of theatrical. Just give it a sunny spot indoors, water sparingly until growth begins, and then sit back and enjoy the show. Whether you’re after a bold festive display or just need a splash of heat during the colder months, Amaryllis 'Red Amazone' delivers with flair. For lovers of the dramatic and the exotic, it’s the perfect winter pick-me-up—fiery, elegant, and unapologetically fabulous.
