PLANTING AND CULTURAL SUGGESTIONS FOR AMARYLLIS 
As soon as bulbs are received unwrap carefully and 
plant them at-once using 6” or 7” clay pots (squatty 
if available) filled to within an inch of the top with 
a mixture of equal parts of leafmold, sand and a 
humusy material. Place bulb in soil so that at least 
half of the bulb is above surface of soil being care- 
ful when setting to spread the bulb roots and fill in 
around them with the soil. 
Moisten soil all thru (not wet) and place potted 
bulb in weak light and a temperature of 65 till flower 
stem emerges from bulb when it can be placed in 
a little stronger light. About a week later place in a 
window or wherever you desire to have it bloom and 
keep soil moist. 
After all bloom is finished remove flower stems 
close to top of bulb using a sharp knife and allow 
foliage to develop as the foliage produces the flower 
buds in the bulb for the following season. When the 
foliage shows signs of dying reduce watering to rest 
bulb for several weeks then when signs of life appear 
in the form of young shoots increase watering and 
place plant. in more light. 
Bulbs can be kept in pots for a number of years 
without repotting but the spent top inch of soil should 
be replaced at least once a year and liquid feeding 
should be practiced starting with foliage growth at 
least once a month.
