I just planted 3 of these bulbs yesterday! They had a teeny tiny neck which I left out of the soil like you suggested. They are currently in a pot on my porch (it is very warm here so going for rapid growth). Your video skipped from day one to one month in already flowering. I’m curious about the time in between: how long until you started to see growth in the necks? How often should I rewet the soil to avoid wet rot but provide enough moisture while outside on the porch?
I'm in London UK and came on line to find out more about the bulb I'm about to plant. Really good information here so thank you. Do you leave yours in the pot ready for next year or do you take them out and store them once all the foliage has died back?
Hi Devin, I bought 6 bulbs from you on QVC about 6 years ago. My bulbs shrunk and quit blooming last year probably because I’m in Texas and let them grow all winter with only 1 month of dormancy. I just did not know how to care for them in winter. When are you going to sell them again? Where can I buy them?
Hi, I have an African Blood Lily bulb that's been sitting inside in a pot all winter. Im going to put it outside in a few weeks (I'm also in PA); however, mine has no neck. The bulb is solid, the roots are thick and white, and the growth plate is intact, just... there's no neck. There's a divit where the neck should be, and you can see down into the center of the bulb. It's the oddest thing. Is there anything I can do to encourage a sprout at the neck?
I live in Houston Texas. My blood lilies have been in the ground from day one. That’s about 15 years. What time of year should I dig them up to trans plant ❓❓ BTW they are in clay dry soil… neglected and forgotten until they bloom in August or September
God blessed you with green hands and gave you incredibly good looks mr. So so handsome.
these Starfires are hard to grow wrong!
Absolutely stunning blooms! Thanks for sharing!
So nice of you
Ooooh...I might need to get some!
They’re amazing!!
carolyn palmer I got some bulbs from Roberta's 3 years ago and they still bloom every summer.
Love hearing that!!
A few weeks ago I just found this random flower blooming in our garden. It's been so dry though. It hasn't rained this entire year, I was surprised.
Oh wow! These plants are incredible and clearly drought tolerant
Thanks for very nice video!!! Just waiting for my Scadoxus to bloom!
They’re so fun! The second years blooms were even better than the first!
Hi Devin ,what abeautiful and amazing flowers of red star fire lily. Have anice day .
Thank you! You too!
They are so eager to bloom. The flowers and leaves are so unique and more beautiful than amaryllis foliage imo.
the foliage alone is worth the plant!
@@plantvibrations And the foliage last so much longer than typical amaryllis from my experience. Cool plants. Where are they native to?
I bought 1 bulb for 16,99$ it's rare here we I live hope it will grow and thank you for information.
They can be quite expensive! They’re hard to find in USA
They are gorgeous!
Yess and so easy!!
I’m from Australia. Queensland Brisbane. Thanks for the information
Greetings!

Thank you! Cheers!
Bola de fuego 😸👍 nice

When it starts to cake dry give it some water. The necks pop up within ten days or so

I love them in the pot all year! Mine are just about to go dormant right now. You will love these bulbs

It sounds like it is dormant. When it’s warm and you place it outside it should grow
@@plantvibrations awesome, thanks!

Wow that’s so cool, wish I could have them in the ground. I’d transplant just after they’ve flowered
Do normal bees polinate these?
They should!
Is this flower used as medicine
I’m not sure
Hi i have about 5 that came in a mixture of potting. Its Winter here do i take them out or dry them out?
Hey rusty, you can take them out and store them in peat moss in the fridge till spring
Thank you so much. I appreciate loyal help.
