    Thanks for your videos! Down to Earth and informative! Just here for "winter bloom prep" advice, so thanks for the chill vibe! Also... My Mama has an Amaryllis (and many off chutes from her bulbs) that are the generations of flowers/plants given to my great-grandmother as a wedding gift. She blooms every Winter... Sometimes many blossoms... Sometimes a few... But, they are a gorgeous coral/orange color & we always acknowledge Grandma visiting us and blessing us with her love and beauty... Peace. xo

    Good explaining from expert of Amaryllis so I will do to store AMARYLLIS in order to take blom for Winter and Christmas season. So Thanks a lot for your video clip. Very useful for me, I got these Amaryllis from a good swedish friend last Christmas (2021) Than I took care these 2 bulbs well - finally it got flowers in July - very surprising for me ✌ Now They are outside - at the balkony. So I will take them for storing before Christmas season wil come. 🎄✨🎀 Best Wishes from STOCKHOLM - SWEDEN😇✨

    We had one in our house for years as a house plant. It never bloomed and it belonged to someone else before we got it so we didn’t even know what it was. Planted it outside one spring on a whim and it sent out 3 huge blooms. Luckily we live somewhere just warm enough for it to survive annually

    In my zone 8b garden, I can either bring them inside to place in a fridge since we are hot in September or just wait until springtime and they will bloom outside in April and May.

    Thank you Devin, for the great informative video. I got a pot of 3 last Xmas and they had 12 blooms. I clipped off the dead flowers and left it indoors in indirect light. I'm in Virginia and is cold even in spring. All of them have 2 or 3 extra long leaves about 3 to 4 ft., so long that they are flopping over. Today is Sept 4 and I'm going to repot them separately. Shall I cut off the leaves now, like you, or should I wait a bit till the roots get their nutrition from the soil? Or instead of repotting, shall I just dry them out for dormancy? Thank you.

      I would just let them dry out into dormancy and repot when you take them out of dormancy. You can leave the foliage on and remove later

    Thank you for the video. I subscribed for more. I have my first amaryllis. Today is June 6th. Right now I have just the leaves but I have been watering the plant when needed. When would probably be the best time for me to prepare it for dormancy and do I need to re-pot the bulb before I do.

    of course they're exceptions to the rule when it comes to growing species Amaryllis like the Beautiful . Papilio aka the "Butterfly Amaryllis". Papilio doesn't go completely dormant.

      sometimes the problem is if they're not able to get cool enough temperatures when theyre in dormancy. some gardeners recommend that they get to 45F for the majority of the dormancy to induce new flowers after wards

    • @plantvibrations
      @plantvibrations  10 місяців тому

      By the time autumn arrives your plants should have had sufficient time to absorb sunlight thru the leaves and it is likely that the leaves are finishing up at that point anyways
