This is a picotee amaryllis bulb that I have grown. Amaryllis are a large bulb that enjoy a snug pot, nutrient rich soil that is well drained (add some sand, succulent mix or tiny stone to your organically fertilized soil. One of my favorite bagged potting soils is Mechanics Organic Container Blend Potting Soil. https://organicmechanicsoil.com/ Full sun in a south facing window. The warmth will spark their growth, they take a number of weeks to grow. The petals on picotee variety are white with a bit of shimmer, the edges are a pinky red. The wavey petals undulate at every stage in which the flower is opening from bud to bloom. Written by Suzanne Luby Ahrens. For original photography print inquires, email suzanne@verdecosi.com
