Hippeastrum Benfica

There is something genuinely spectacular about watching an amaryllis grow. Benfica pushes its rich wine red blooms upward with a pace you can almost observe, a display of botanical confidence that makes it the most exciting thing in the house. In January to December, it brings a warmth and drama to interiors that no other plant quite manages — particularly in the darkest weeks of winter, when its colour and scale feel genuinely necessary. Selected by BLOM's growers for size and health, these are amaryllis bulbs that arrive with everything they need to perform — the most dramatic indoor bulb, done properly.
