Description
What if you could capture the ephemeral beauty of a fleeting dream in a flower? Hippeastrum 'Shine Dream' seems to do that perfectly. The buds unfurl to reveal huge trumpet-shaped flowers whose petals appear to be expertly painted in the most delicate salmon-pink against a pure white background. These perfectly symmetrical six-petaled blooms are almost unreal in their beauty. Fresh and elegant, 'Shine Dream' hippeastrums are a great way to bring a bit of floral zing into your home at a time of year when it is in short supply.
Hippeastrums, also known as Amaryllis, can be forced to flower indoors in winter, making them a great choice if you want to brighten up your interior during the winter months. Hippeastrum 'Shine Dream' will produce several flowering stems, each one topped with multiple magnificent flowers, creating a display that will often last several weeks. Pot them individually or pop a group of bulbs into a pot, ensuring the top third of the bulb is showing, and you’ll get an even more impactful display.
