How to Plant & Care For Amaryllis Bulbs

Planting and caring for Amaryllis bulbs is simple and rewarding:

  • Indoors:
    • Plant in a pot slightly larger than the bulb, leaving the top third of the bulb exposed
    • Use well-draining potting mix
    • Place in bright, indirect light and water sparingly until growth appears
    • Once growing, water regularly but let the soil dry out slightly between waterings
    • Rotate the pot to encourage even growth

  • Outdoors (Zones 8–11):
    • Plant bulbs with the neck above soil level
    • Choose a full sun to partial shade location
    • Water during dry spells, but avoid soggy soils
    • Mulch with arborist mulch to maintain even moisture
    • Use the Finger Test to monitor soil moisture and prevent overwatering.

After blooming, allow the foliage to grow and recharge the bulb for next season. Bulbs can be rested and stored for future blooming cycles. For more care and bulb storage info, check out our Garden Blog!

FAQS for Buying Amaryllis Online

What Makes Amaryllis Bulbs So Popular for Indoor and Outdoor Gardens?

Amaryllis bulbs are rockstars in the plant world because they deliver massive, show-stopping blooms with very little effort! Whether you want to add bold tropical flair to your sunny patio or create a winter wonderland indoors, Amaryllis bulbs offer stunning color, oversized trumpet-shaped flowers, and pure garden drama. Their ability to bloom indoors during winter makes them a top pick for holiday décor, while outdoor plantings in Zones 8–11 turn any yard into a tropical paradise.

How Do You Plant Amaryllis Bulbs Indoors for Winter Blooms?

Planting Amaryllis bulbs indoors is as easy as pie—and just as sweet when the blooms burst open! Choose a snug pot with drainage, fill it with well-draining soil, and leave the top third of the bulb peeking above the surface. Place it in a bright, indirect light location, water sparingly until you see growth, then water a little more once the show gets started. Rotate the pot now and then to keep those thick stems growing straight and strong, and get ready for a spectacular floral performance!

Can Amaryllis Bulbs Be Planted Outside?

You bet! If you live in warm zones (8–11), Amaryllis bulbs can thrive outdoors. Plant them with their necks above the soil line in a sunny to partly shaded spot. Once settled, they’ll pop up each season with those famous oversized blooms that make people say, "Whoa, what is that gorgeous flower?" Just add mulch to conserve moisture, water during dry spells, and let Mother Nature—and a little Southern sunshine—work her magic.

How Do You Care for Amaryllis Bulbs After They Bloom?

Once the curtain falls on the big bloom show, it’s time for Amaryllis bulbs to rest and recharge. Leave the leaves alone—those green goodies are feeding the bulb for next season’s encore. Keep watering when the soil gets dry, fertilize lightly, and let the foliage grow lush. When the leaves yellow and die back naturally, you can store the bulb in a cool, dry place to rest before encouraging it to bloom all over again. It's a full-circle moment that gardeners of every generation love!

What Are Some of the Best Amaryllis Varieties for Beginners?

If you're ready to dive into the dazzling world of Amaryllis, start with classic, crowd-pleasing varieties like Red Lion Amaryllis—the bold, deep red champion of holiday décor—or Apple Blossom Amaryllis with its soft pink and white blooms kissed with fragrance. Feeling fancy? Try Picotee Amaryllis, with its elegant red-edged petals, or go full glam with lush Double Amaryllis varieties for extra layers of floral fabulousness. Whichever path you choose, these beauties are practically guaranteed to steal the spotlight!
