I'm glad I got to see an updated video on the plant you cut. Congratulations of getting it to finally grow! Well done!

Thanks, yes it recovered well after cutting it to allow the new leaves to grow through. Its now flowered almost every year since.

My daughter gave me hers., I planted outside a couple of years ago in my garden, every year it blooms more beautiful that the year before. (I live in the South, and it is happy).Such an impressive 🪴. Thank you for info.

Must be great to be able to grow them outside, I have seen them grown outside in Taiwan and they do great with the extra light levels. There is a hardy variety that is supposed to survive UK winters which I might try next year, although my winters are so wet I worry they might rot.

I live in Central Florida. Rather sandy soil, very high humidity in summer, cool & windy in winter with rare freezing nights. I did purchase some from a big box store after Christmas & they were fine. Sometimes it a matter of flower coloring for the would be buyer. I take them home, clean off dead leaves. I’ve never trimmed the roots back, just pick a well drained sunny spot & plant them. I don’t special water. Spent flower stalks are cut off, but green leaves stay on until early spring. I got some lovely deep red ones the came from my grandfather (he lived in Alabama). The whole line of garden across the front of his house was full of these beautiful red flowers. Some of the bulbs are twice the size of your big one. They make lots of babies that I don’t remove for a year or so. 2-3 flower spikes & 4 flowers per stalk. I don’t buy the store leftovers any more as I love grandfather’s colors better. If it gets cold I put my Christmas lights around them & cover with a blanket.

Me and my wife planted an amaryllis in central Arizona when we first met 6 years ago. It flowered a few times and mostly grew enormous leaves all year round. We have since moved to Oklahoma where winters actually get cold, so this is the first time I've seen the thing fully go dormant. So, I just transplanted and slightly trimmed one of the 2 bulbs and left the mother bulb in the original pot. We shall see how this goes. Thanks for the information!

This was incredibly helpful, thank you!

Thank you! I got one of these as a x-mas gift but wasn’t sure how to care for it. Very helpful

Thank you, excellent video! Very helpful

Yes I'm going to attempt to repot an amaryllis that was gifted to me. Fingers crossed, it's not doing well, it hasn't flowered at all

Nice information.

Yours was the best video I have seen about repotting Amaryllis. I had 21 of them and lost 2 last summer. I had them outside. Do you have other videos? So good!

Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed my video, wow that is a lot of amaryllis to look after, they must look stunning when in bloom. Yes I have several other videos about them, if you search my channel you should be able to find them.

Thank you so much!

If they are going dormant and loosing all their leaves but not flowering when they come back into growth it could be,: lack of light over the growing season, not enough high potassium feed or high temperatures whilst dormant, i.e. above 20C (68F). Another reason could be a choked bulb where the neck is too tight for the flower buds to emerge, but usually the leaves are also stunted when this happens.

Great video! We were gifted an amaryllis at Christmas. It flowered with four flowers and also grew a daughter bulb. I've tried to look for dormancy info but all I've found is to put them in a basement and not water it but we don't have a basement. Would you be able to do a video on it? 😊

They don't need a basement for storage, I've had mine for 6 years and I've never had a basement in that time. In autumn reduce the watering and move to a cooler position if you can. The leaves should then go yellow and you should stop watering when this happens. Once all the leaves have died keep it cool and dry for a month or two. After this time or if new growth appears, move the bulb to a warm location and slowly start watering again. It doesn't need to be very cool, in the past mine have been around 18C (64F) usually the natural drop in house temperature between summer and winter is enough. Here is a video where I discuss dormancy kzread.info/dash/bejne/oH6Dk9mPXc2wp9o.html

Ași dori să se explice si in Romina ca am cumpărat de la Lidal bulbi si nu iteleg cum săi plantez acum dacă merg in grădină sau numai la ghiveci vă mulțumesc

Very nice 🤙 Palestine

Question! After you repot your plants do you bring inside of the house! This is good information mine I need to repot but I am afraid when is the right time to repot. I think I did wrong my Amaryllis because I planted in big pots and covered the soil. But still thriving. Thanks your tips and learned a lot your videos relating to repotting the Amaryllis plant. Thanks your response as well.

Yes I grow mine indoors as in my climate the summers are not very warm, but outside is also OK for them over summer. They need lots of sunshine over the summer to build up their bulbs, but don't put them from a low light area to a high light area straight away without slowly getting them used to strong sunshine, otherwise they can get burnt by the sun. Indoors a sunny windowsill is best, just avoid the midday sun.

My bulb has produced more bulbs and I have a very very big bulb I was wondering should I cut that bulb in half or in quarters to get more bulbs and more flowers??

Hi I have been watching your show and I really enjoyed it.But I have just reported a amaryllis, But I watered the bulb and I hope that I won't kill it ? Kind regards Milly

If the soil is damp and not wet then it should be ok, keep the soil a little dry but not bone dry, then once growth starts water as normal.
