Potting Amaryllis Bulbs
Choose a container that’s slightly larger in diameter than the bulb. Amaryllis don’t like a lot extra space in their pot, so 1-2″ between a large bulb and the pot wall is ideal (less for smaller and miniature bulbs). Be sure the vessel has drainage holes or use an inner grow liner.
Use a well-drained potting mix, and add enough to the pot to help you position the bulb where you’d like it to sit. About ¼ of the bulb should remain above the soil line (the skinny “neck” and just a bit of the “shoulders”). Add potting mix to fill in around the bulb and compact it firmly.
Amaryllis Care
Watering: Water your bulb sparingly until it begins to show growth. Depending on the variety or place of origin this can be a slow process, but have patience! As long as the bulb feels firm and looks healthy, you’ll eventually start seeing signs of movement.
Once growth begins you can start watering regularly, but allow the top half of the soil to dry out in between. Amaryllis do not like sitting in soggy soil, which can contribute to bulb rot. Avoid getting water into the neck of the bulb.
Light and Temperature: Grow your amaryllis in a location that gets bright, indirect light and consistent, draft-free temperatures. Stems will grow towards a light source, so it may be necessary to rotate the pot a quarter turn every few days to keep the stem growing upright.
You can encourage your Amaryllis to come along faster by placing it in a warmer environment or giving it some gentle bottom-heat with a seed starting mat. Once it’s growing vigorously and sending up flower stalks, it’s advisable to move it to a cooler location to prolong blooming time (keep above 60F).
