How do you plant an amaryllis?

Planting an amaryllis bulb is easy and can be done both indoors and outdoors. To start, choose a pot with good drainage. This will prevent the bulb from rotting due to excess water. Place a layer of gravel or shards in the bottom of the pot and then fill it with potting soil to about halfway.

Place the bulb on the potting soil and fill the pot with soil, so that the upper part of the bulb is still visible. Water the bulb immediately, but be careful with the amount. The soil should be moist, but not soaked. Place the pot in a light, warm place and wait patiently for the first signs of growth.

Care tips for a healthy bulb flower

Once planted, it is important to take good care of your bulb flower. Water the plant regularly, especially during the growth and flowering period. Make sure the soil remains moist, but avoid waterlogging. Amaryllises love light, so place the plant in a place where it gets enough sunlight.

In addition to water and light, the amaryllis also needs nutrients. Use a liquid plant food that is rich in potassium and phosphorus to promote flowering. Fertilize the plant once every two weeks during the growth period. This ensures that your bulb flower develops strong, healthy flowers.

Extend the flowering period

One of the biggest advantages of the amaryllis is its long flowering period. With proper care, the flowers can bloom for weeks. To extend the flowering period, you can use a few simple tricks.

Move the plant to a cooler spot once the flowers start to bloom. This will slow down the process and ensure a longer flowering period. Cut away wilted flowers immediately to save the plant energy. This way, the bulb flower can focus on developing new buds. Also keep the leaves healthy by regularly dusting them and rinsing them with water. Healthy leaves are essential for photosynthesis and contribute to the overall vitality of the plant.

Storing amaryllis bulbs after flowering

After the flowering period, it is important to store your amaryllis bulb well for the next season. Cut off the faded flowers, but leave the leaves. Keep watering and feeding the plant until the leaves start to turn yellow. This process ensures that the bulb can store sufficient nutrients.

When the leaves have completely yellowed, you can cut them off and remove the bulb from the pot. Let the bulb dry and then store it in a cool, dry place. It is advisable to wrap the bulb in newspaper to prevent damage. In the next planting season you can replant the bulb and enjoy a new bloom.
