Whether you know them as amaryllis or hippeastrum, we can all agree that these plants are a staple during the festive season. But if you want to grow it to adorn Christmas tables or gift loved ones, you must know how to plant amaryllis bulbs in pots.
Sure, you can buy fully-grown amaryllis plants from your local garden centre or supermarket, but there’s nothing quite like growing your own blooms from the bulb. And if you know when to plant amaryllis bulbs and how to care for amaryllis, you’re already halfway there. There’s a technique to planting the bulbs, though - and one wrong move could result in your amaryllis not flowering.
