of respondents would recommend this to a friend
Vibrant, velvety red with a sparkling white star.

Miniature Amaryllis have all the wonderful qualities of their larger relatives; however, they produce a larger number of smaller flowers per stem and more stems. These novelties are sure to please and will provide brilliant color indoors during those dreary winter days. Note: You will receive large size bulbs, but the bulbs will not be as large as our regular Amaryllis as this variety does not grow as large.

These are the smaller of the amaryllis I bought. But they are still very large. Can't wait to see them bloom.

These very beautiful bulbs were advertised to bloom for Christmas. I had a table arrangement planned for Christmas and had to change it because they did not bloom in time. Not a big deal but my guests didn't get to enjoy them. The blooms are gorgeous and the bulbs are gigantic!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
