Rainy 19°C / 67°FOh and a few cuttings put in to root for good measure. Repotted the Fuchsia, trimmed back some of the branches, and put it in a hanging basket in the east-facing window. Let’s see if we can keep it alive through the winter. Unpotted the three Amarylis bulbs, put them in paper bags for ...

The swollen seed pods on the ‘Apple Blossom’ Amaryllis were doing just fine. This morning, however, I noticed that they turned yellow and were shrivelling. Clearly no viable seeds were being produced. I cut them off the plant and opened the two largest. There were some tiny white seed...Indoors -

Potting up the dormant Amaryllis bulbs

Once again, the experiment to see if we can get them to rebloom. The Red Lion was a new bulb last winter and bloomed then.

Not much luck with the Amaryllis
Inside the House garden , Hippeastrum - Amaryllis - 'Red Lion' & 'Minerva' Dying, Hippeastrum - Amaryllis '...IndoorsI have no idea what the problem is, but I just can’t get the Amaryllis to 1-bloom or 2-grow or even 3-live. The new large bulb from Holland bulbs is just now starting to show the slightest tip of a new leaf after one one full month. One of the two small bulbs that I received from a swap tha...

IndoorsApparently the bulbs have settled in, and must be sending out new roots. The existing leaves have grown about an inch or so. One bulb more than the other. I trimmed off the brown tips so they look nicer. From my past experience with Amaryllis, the leaves should grow pretty fast.

IndoorsThese were two bulbs I received in a swap. The trader thought, but wasn’t sure, that they were ‘Apple Blossom’ as she had several varieties together in an outside bed. They are very small, so I don’t know if they will be mature enough to produce a flower, but they need to ...
