These were my favorite flowers this year. Sonatini bulbs are smaller dwarf bulbs, so read the listing so you are not surprised like I was.

From Lexington SC

I tried the red and white hardy amaryllis several years ago. They have done well for me so this year I ordered the white version, Alaska,. All 6 came up and they are nothing short of spectacular.. Every stem has large, double, ruffled, multiple blossoms. It's a bouquet on each stem. The last to bloom had three stems, each loaded with flowers. Best deal ever.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I planted my white Amaryllis bulbs in a large Mexican clay pot out doors .I expected the bulbs to be larger as a larger bulb would produce a larger bloom.

Q
Why are you sending out mushy bulbs. I won't order from you now. Very small amount of reviews and to many say they are mushy. Your company knows when the bulbs are mush and they still send them out. Not taking a chance with a company that does that. Sorry
Asked by Ter
Verified Reply - AngelaI am sorry but I'm not sure I understand the question. The Hardy Amaryllis Alaska bulbs have 9 reviews and only one mentioned mushy bulbs. We definitely don't want any customer to receive mushy bulbs and would replace them or provide a credit if it should happen. Please take a look at the customer photos and reviews again. We are happy to answer any questions you may have about the product or our No Risk Guarantee. Was this answer helpful to you
Q
It's winter, indoors, planted in pot, it's blooming nicely, one stem has produced four beautiful blossoms, the second stem is now blooming. When should I remove the baulb for rest? Thank you
Asked by Denise
Verified Reply - AngelaAfter flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally. Reduce watering at this stage and place in a cool dark storage area for 6-8 weeks. Was this answer helpful to you
Q
I just received the bulbs last week and planted them. Can I expect to see the plants grow and bloom this spring? It's already late spring, so if not now, when? After the blooms nd decay of leaves=,are the cubs to be dug up and stored indoors until the following spring, or are they to be left on their own with sepectations of blooms in successive years?
Asked by franklin
Verified Reply - ViciThese bulbs will grow and bloom this season. Because they were just planted, it could take some time for them to grow. Once the blooms are spent and the leaves die back, you will not need to dig up the bulbs in your zone of 7b as they are hardy in zones 7 - 10.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Is there other colors in hardy amaryllis other than white and pink
Asked by diane
Verified Reply - AngelaWe don't currently offer any other colors of Hardy Garden Amaryllis. We had the red and white Eye Catcher but it's also currently out of stock. Was this answer helpful to you
