Hippeastrum (Galaxy Group) ‘Red Lion’

This super-sized amaryllis is 36cm round the bulb, so should produce 2 to 3 stems per bulb, or even 4 if you are very lucky. With approx 4/5 flowers on each stem, the display of ‘Red Lion’ can be stunning. An interesting houseplant with spectacular funnel-shaped flowers appearing on tall stems before the strap-like green leaves. The stunning blooms appear about six to eight weeks after planting, and with careful timing you could have a lovely display just in time for Christmas.
