Amaryllis Mont Blanc
M5517
The recurved trumpets of white Hippeastrum ‘Mont Blanc’ make a wonderfully fresh focal point in the home during the colder months. The huge, pure white flowers are flushed with verdant green in the centre, holding a cluster of long, pollen-tipped stamens.
The bulb produces two stems, each holding up to 5 spectacular blooms.
South African native Hippeastrum are often referred to as Amaryllis and grown in cooler climates as striking houseplants.
Place the potted bulbs in a prominent position where you can watch as buds gradually open into breathtaking blooms topping tall, elegant stems.
Care Guide
Before planting soak lower part of bulb and roots in warm water for a few hours. Plant in 5-7” pot with good drainage, pot in good quality 10 potting compost leaving the top third of the bulb exposed. Place pot in warm place but draught free.
Water sparingly until stem appears then water more freely.
