Amaryllis Charisma
Amaryllis bulbs
are among the easiest plants to grow we'll show you how. But first, you
should know that an Amaryllis is really a Hippeastrum. Hippeastrums
are in the genus Ammaryllidacea (a family of flowering plants) which is the source
of the confusion.
The true Amaryllis consists of a single species,
Amaryllis belladonna, also known as "naked ladies". However, there are more
than
50 spe
cies of Hippeastrum. We will use the popular name ,
Amaryllis, though you will also see them referred to elsewhere, more correctly, as
Hippeastrum.

Mature plants can get quite large but there are many
smaller varieties that are compact and will fit on a windowsill. With just a

year. You can expect two or more stems, each with at least four large flowers
per stem, if you grow your bulbs well! Start now
