Indoor growing instructions
Making the compost: place the peat free compost pellet in a suitable mixing container and add 350ml of lukewarm water. Allow to stand and expand for 30-60 minutes, drain off any excess water and mix compost well.
How to plant: Half fill the pot with compost. Place the bulb in the pot and fill with more compost so that the upper third of the bulb is showing. This flower is happiest when planted in direct sunlight at room temperature. The ‘Ruby Star’ will then bloom around 8 weeks after planting in winter or early spring. You may need to support the stem as it grows and as the flowers bloom.
Flowering months: December, January, February, March
Hardiness: Tolerant of low temperatures but will not survive being frozen
When to plant: September, October, November, December
Position: Indoors
Sunlight: Full sun, partial shade
This growing kit contains: 1 Amaryllis bulb (flowering height: 26-28cm), peat free compost pellet and pot
