Care Instructions for Double White Trio Amaryllis (Pre-Potted)
These amaryllis bulbs are already potted, so your focus will be on placement, watering, and general care to ensure healthy blooms.
Placement
- Place the container indoors in bright, indirect sunlight—a north or east-facing window is ideal.
- Keep it away from direct afternoon sun and drafts (heaters, vents, cold windows).
Watering
- Water sparingly until growth appears—about once every 7–10 days.
- Once a green shoot emerges, increase watering slightly. Keep soil lightly moist but never soggy.
- Always water at the soil level, not over the bulb. Bulbs can rot if they stay wet.
- Ensure the container has drainage. If not, water carefully to avoid water pooling at the bottom.
Blooming
- Expect blooms to appear within 6–8 weeks after growth starts.
- Rotate the pot every few days to keep the stem growing straight.
- Use a stake if the flower stalk gets top-heavy.
After Flowering
- Cut off faded blooms but leave the green leaves.
- Continue watering and provide sunlight to recharge the bulb.
- After leaves yellow (typically late summer), stop watering. Let the bulbs rest for 8–10 weeks in a cool, dark place.
- Restart the cycle by moving it back to light and resuming watering.
Enjoy the beautiful blooms—it’s a simple, rewarding indoor flower!
