Poor drainage increases the risk of bulb and root rot. A little feed during active growth is usually enough.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKeeping amaryllis after flowering\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove spent flowers. Once the flower stem is fully spent, you can remove that too.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeave the leaves in place. This helps the bulb build up reserves again for another flowering cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf you want to keep your amaryllis for next year, see \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/blomgarden.nl\/blogs\/tuingids\/amaryllis-overhouden\"\u003eAmaryllis overhouden\u003c\/a\u003e; gradually reduce watering and wait until the leaves yellow naturally. After that, the bulb can rest in the pot somewhere cool, dark and dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf you want to start again, repotting with fresh compost is a logical step. Bear in mind that flowering again takes time and can vary in strength and timing depending on the bulb, position and care.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions about amaryllis in a pot\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelow, you will find short answers to questions that often come up when choosing and caring for amaryllis in a pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs amaryllis hardy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the Netherlands, amaryllis is usually not reliably hardy. If your plant is in a pot, keep it frost-free, or at least very sheltered, during cold periods. That is exactly why growing in a pot is so useful: you can easily move the bulb to a place where it stays safe and dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I plant an amaryllis bulb without soil?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, an amaryllis bulb can also be started without potting compost, for example as amaryllis in a glass pot or in water. That is, however, a different growing method from this category. Make sure the whole bulb is not standing in water; only the roots should reach the water. In potting compost, growth is usually more stable and the chance of flowering again is often greater.

Outdoors, it only works in a warm, sheltered spot with very good drainage and protection from frost. For more control over flowering, position and overwintering, a pot is usually the most practical choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen is the right time for amaryllis?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor indoor flowering, amaryllis for pots is usually planted in autumn or early winter. Exactly when the flowers open depends on light, warmth and the planting time. If you want colour in your home around the festive season, a Christmas amaryllis is a classic choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eView the amaryllis for pots range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eView the range now and filter by colour, mood and preferred flowering period.
