My Amaryllis Addiction Grows & I Need Your Help! // Northlawn Flower Farm

[@jcking6785]

OH.MY.GOODNESS! I think the amaryllis growers owe you a debt of gratitude because if anybody else is like me I think I found a new obsession. I don’t have great luck keeping them from year to year but I have had success growing them indoors for Christmas (zone6b) and I’d love to try some of the more “exotic” varieties. As usual, Danielle, this was a beautiful video full of so much good information. Thank you! 💚

[@thandekapercival5636]

Glad to see I'm not the only one obsessed with these plants. I'm four years in with 12 varieties and still buying.

[@dawnmitzner5222]

My mom used to leave her Amaryllis in her south facing window year round. They would die back, sprout new leaves, and rebloom each year. Sometimes they’d bloom twice in the year. It wasn’t odd to see her amaryllis blooming away in July or August in the heat of the summer! She would just water them once in awhile, pick the dead leaves off when necessary, and enjoy the blooms when they came.

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Thanks for this information Dawn. So she would not put them into dormancy?

[@ilenehales7849]

@@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens My grandmother left hers in a west facing window and never put it into dormancy and bloomed twice a year. Apple blossom 🌸 is my favorite.

[@claragoforth3645]

I have grown mine for 2 years with no forced dormancy and all have rebloomed for me multiple times. The blooms are at random timing but such a surprise each time! Mine actually live under a grow light through out the year and I cut the blooms to bring them throughout the house (all 4 are potted together so it isn’t a pretty arrangement). Actually really thinking about repotting them separately so I don’t have to cut the flowers to enjoy them but have to wait for the right pots. They bloom, grow leaves, the leaves eventually fade, go dormant (bare bulb) for a short time and then a new bloom starts to grow. Since mine live under a grow light they have consistent care - when they are dormant/just a bare bulb I occasionally check the bulb for rotting because I worry about them:) I just bought 3 new varieties for this year but I really love your white/green one! I also need to pay attention so I can label mine as they bloom again.

[@pamelaspooner8335]

I have been looking for comments like this...growing an amaryllis naturally however it wants to grow like Nature wants it to. Makes sense to me.

[@debbiedowner22]

I live in south Louisiana. Last year I fell in love with amaryllis before I even owned any. I kept seeing them blooming in flower beds around me the past few springs. I happened upon a deal where a guy was getting rid of his and selling them for $1 each. I bought 50 and planted them. Only one bloomed bc they were small bulbs. But now I’m obsessed! I left them in the ground all year and they have gone from walnut size to baseball size in one growing season! I’m hoping to get lots of blooms this spring. I can’t wait!

What a nice video to share in February when we’re craving sunshine and flowers! Thank you, Danielle.

[@lauratehennepe8339]

I'm really appreciating the amount of calm, enthusiastic detail you go into. : ) Re: double vs. original blooms - I really like the single/original blooms. The gorgeous simple, sculptural lines, the color shifts as the flower dives into the center, the clearer canvas for the subtle changes throughout each petal. The doubles are generally too busy for me.

[@ydoyougarden]

Does anyone else just feel so much better after looking at beautiful blooms? Ah! Just what I needed. I love my Exotic Star amaryllis, it’s just so unusual. I also noticed that cut amaryllis last longer (as long as 10 days). As for the dormancy, I tried so many times to have them rebloom without planting them outside and they just won’t do it. I may try again and will let you know. Great video!!

[@bondsperfectblond]

You are so, so correct ") I am a contented person, rarely feeling down, but tonight was feeling somewhat blue. Though now in good health I am just getting over a stay in Hospital & was feeling a little bitter. Watching these Amarylis videos by Danielle have wiped away all feelings of self pity ")

[@janacox9478]

As always, I enjoyed this video. I have a passion for Amarylis, too. I have about 12 still blooming. My Dancing Queen was the first to bloom before Christmas. They got very tall with many heavy blooms. They were staked but still broke so I used them as cut flowers. Filled stems like you said and added a cotton ball. They lasted a long time. I really like Samba but if you don’t order early they get sold out. I have given many away as gifts, my clients always love them. My husband really enjoys them , too. I always learn something from your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. ❤

[@banditthemainecoon3295]

My favorites are “Nymph”, “Denver” and “Stardust”. I bought a lot of them from my local garden store for less then 3 dollar each after the new year. The ordinary price was 30 dollars each. They are blooming and are gorgeous! I couldn’t believe my luck. From now on I’m only going to buy them when there is a sale because it don’t care when they’re blooming. I’m going to save them for next year.

[@sandrasmith8100]

I love growing amaryllis! I am in zone 8b and after Christmas I let them go dormant and then plant them outside in my flowers beds, they always bloom the next summer! Then I get more for Christmas! Thanks for all your knowledge that you share for all of us!

[@95KIPPIE]

I love the one called Apple Blossom, that one is just breathtaking

[@david-breitenfeld]

My amaryllis is big. The bulb is 7" diameter, the flower stem is 4.5 ft (it must be propped up and tied or it will snap in half), the leaves are about 4 ft and the dark red flowers are 6" across. I let mine grow all year long in my house, near the picture window and never cut the leaves. I have had this plant for over 15 years. It blooms once a year around February. It sets in a 16" plastic pot and I water twice a week.

[@ivyme7318]

Thank you for sharing,love your videos..beautiful flowers

[@williamkallenbach7461]

Your yellow looks more vanilla/cream with a lime green throat on my screen. I've never had thrips on them, only on gladiola leaves. Lost my entire amaryllis collection (in excess of 20 bulbs) to mealy bugs over 12 years ago after having them outside for the summer. They were in pots during dormancy in a cool basement. By the time I knew there was a problem it was too late. I've had Spartacus and yes, the blooms are more blue red than Minerva, and they were HUGE ! I think cut flowers last longer in a vase due to getting all the water they can use. Don't usually cut them unless they are too weak to stay upright on their own. Unfortunately I do not have any pics to share. I've had some beauties over the years, ever since the 1970s. Only have one at present that I have been nursing since purchased in fall of 2016. Looks like it may finally be large enough to bloom next spring. And she has an offset almost the same size now who also has a baby. I leave them in pots during dormancy and they die down naturally and wake up when ready in cool dark basement. Just remove as much old soil from top and replace with fresh potting mix with slow release fertilizer added. They spend the summers outdoors in a mostly sunny location until frost threatens in fall. Recently ordered a jumbo (40 + cm.) on a preship sale for shipment this fall. It is a red /white striped unnamed variety. Never had a jumbo before so looking forward to getting it. BTW, supposedly if you clip off the ends of stamens and pistol the flowers last longer. Plus there is no mess from falling pollen or sticky drips from pistol !

[@karentriebel1217]

Lemon star is new to me this year So glad I got it.Such an abundance of flowers, 2 stalks at once and a 3rd shortly after. It's not yellow, but white with a green throat. Long lasting too!!.

I had that too! I wonder is the wrong bulb got in Lemon Star box because it was defenitly not like the vlog! Thats what I expected. I love that one.

[@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens]

Wow! Interesting! So do you think none of us have lemon star? I did think the petal structure seems a bit different than the online photo also. Longer pointy petals that a standard amaryllis. What do you think?

[@nicolethijs5428]

@@NorthlawnFlowerFarmandGardens I do think you have a true Lemon Star! I defenitly did not have one! I was sure from the minut I saw yours. Yours has a real pale lemon tint to it with the lime troat.

Well, I did it. I bought an amaryllis. Your enthusiasm for them was so contagious! I can’t wait until it blooms. It’s a red Double King.

[@TheLinrose88]

Yes I have noticed a longer life in the vase opposed to on the plant, maybe an extra week! As to double amaryllis I got a few this year and I am in love, especially the variety Alfresco. I also tried a butterfly variety ‘Papillio’ which was amazing green with purple-red stripes. I tried a wax coated amaryllis just to see what that was about. The variety is ‘Picasso’ and it did indeed bloom with smaller white with red edges flowers.

[@QueenAnnesLace13]

Purchased a Papillio this year, love the color. looking forward to a Picotee next year.

[@Ann-jx7ri]

I, too, am a fan of Alfresco.

[@theheritagehousesc]

I got a double Amaryllis this year by mistake. It was mislabeled. The only thing I didn’t like is that they became so tall that broke off one morning. I placed in a vase and they bloomed for over a month. They do last a lot longer in the vase than on the bulb for sure. That produced four stalks. I love it! I love them all tho. All four I got this year were mislabeled. I was disappointed I didn’t get the ones they had on the pictures! Yours are all gorgeous!

[@therisinggarden5928]

I want to say, I kept amaryllis indoors all year round and they do just fine. As long as they are getting at least a few hours of direct sun each day (more sun means more flowers) and are given a good amount of TLC, they should rebloom no problem. I never really needed to force dormancy on my amaryllis as every November or December they will drop their leaves only to bloom again in February or March. The process is not very complicated esp if you don’t need amaryllis to bloom during Christmas.

Made a folder to save this, I'll want to watch it again in Sept. Until you came along I never knew anymore about Amaryllis then the ones in the stores, and the few in garden centers. I bought a nice bulb at a garden center that never bloomed, beautiful foliage tho.? Wondering if I used a planter that may be too small, I think I'll transplant it and move it into a closet for dormancy. I hope you continue to show each step you take as you ready them to bloom again.

[@dg8828]

Thanks for sharing experience and beautiful flowers. I found thrips on the leaves of one my plants just before the buds came out this January.. I sprayed and eventually cut off the leaves because they looked so infested. However the bloom stalk was undamaged The current bloom is stunning. This amaryllis which was just described as red , bloomed on one stalk Jan 2021 and again July 2021 . And now has huge (7 -8 ins in diameter) blooms on one stock. So 3 blooms in one year. Not as impressive though as three blooms at once.

You should create that peach amaryllis with pink edging! As much as you love them I feel like it would be a labor of love. I only recently started crossing a few, but I found the idea of bringing fragrance into these flowers is something I’d like to try. I wonder if belladonna lilies can cross with these? Also, I wonder was your red pearl bulb in perfect health? I don’t think it was red blotch, and unless it was rotting on the inside, I’d have guessed thrips too.

Just saw your program for first time. I have a amaryllis that was my mother in laws . I’ve had it for over 40 years now and it’s in my flower bed, and is a big cluster of them. I will look them up to find the variety. They are so healthy in my flower bed facing north. I live in the upstate of S. Carolina.I don’t t know it’s name, but could send you a photo of it if you’d like. There must be way over a dozen stems at least. I am also overwintering 3 pots of 3 bulbs right now for my first time indoors. They may be a bit late blooming for the holidays sad to say. So I’m just starting out to get on with indoor growing of them. I don’t remember the color of them as I planted it about 15 years ago, but never bloomed after moving outside after the holidays and forgot it was there. I accident,y planted a gardenia plant there in the same place and noticed it kept multiplying, but no blooms. So this year I dug them up to put them in a dark room. M.

They should send you a replacement. I googled “ thrip damage on amaryllis” and Google brought up all kinds of info plus pictures of amaryllis with thrips. They said to use blue sticky traps or pyrethrin spray. I personally would throw it away to keep it from spreading to my other bulbs. Love this video!

I love my amaryllis and have done the basement method after they bloom and I have had them in my window sill for several months with just the leaves. One must have space to do all this. I tire of the leaves and want something else. I also have found that the blooms will weep a sticky substance and you have to be careful where you place your bulbs because the substance can damage wooden surfaces. After trying to save the bulbs after they bloom for me they have bloomed again but with not as much vigor maybe only one stalk. I finally decided that I would treat my bulbs like an annual and buy new ones each year.

Thank You for sharing gour different varieties... love the specific info. I grew a number of res pearl this year and gave all for gifts except one I kept and I agree its definitely the most beautiful red. I would call it burgundy red I think. I will be very curious to see if the bulbs you kept inside and are now dormant get flowers once you wake them up:) My mother in law has never been able to get them to bloom again ( she's always left them on a window inside the house), granted she didn't put them into dormancy so I wait with anticipation to see what happens with them. If they do bloom again I would love to know what direction the window they were in is facing. I think this could make a huge difference. I had one last year that finished blooming and I didn't know they should be put outside so it stayed in an east window which is huge and many of my house plants do well on this window sill wall. Long story, I put it into dormancy and brought it back out and it is slowly waking up but I'm not certain yet if it will flower or just give leaves. This particular amaryllis also put out three babies so thats exciting but will wait to see if it flowers. Love to you sweet sister, just love your videos. Trying to keep warm in Ontario,Canada :)

I have an amaryllis, that is a huge bulb, that just grew one large tall stock without leaves; have not seen that before.
