Red Lion Amaryllis FAQ

How much water does my Red Lion Amaryllis need?

Amaryllis prefer well-drained soil. Letting your soil dry full between each watering will promote growth and blooms.

Do I need to fertilize my Red Lion Amaryllis?

Fertilizer isn’t a necessity but an added bonus. Your amaryllis stores its bloom inside the bulb from the previous growing season. The best time to fertilize your amaryllis is after it blooms until you put it back into dormancy. That way it has the energy to produce another large bloom next season.

How much sunlight does my Red Lion Amaryllis need?

Your new Red Lion Amaryllis needs sunshine—Amaryllis require about 4 hours of sunlight per day. The more sunlight the quicker it will bloom or grow. Choose a window with as much light as possible to encourage fast growth.  Because its stalks will bend toward sunlight, we recommend rotating your pot every two weeks or so.

Do I need to prune my Red Lion Amaryllis?

Once the Red Lion flowers wither away, it’s a good idea to cut the dried leaves and stalks (don’t touch the healthy leaves, though!). You can prune leaves when they turn yellow, but keep the amaryllis bulb in the soil.

Can I propagate my Red Lion Amaryllis?

Yes! Red Lion Amaryllis takes 2-3 years from seed to bloom, so propagating from them from bulbs is a faster method. Mature bulbs sometimes produce baby bulbs that grow off the side of the mother bulb. Once they are large enough you can break them off and plant them using the same method as a mature bulb. Once leaves start to sprout, you can start watering your new bulbs.
