Waxed Hippeastrums

Waxed Hippeastrums

Waxed Hippeastrums are specially prepared amaryllis bulbs coated in decorative wax, allowing them to grow and flower without soil or watering. Each bulb contains all the stored energy it needs to produce spectacular trumpet-shaped blooms, making them one of the easiest indoor flowering bulbs to enjoy.

Effortless Indoor Colour

Simply place the bulb in a bright, warm location and watch it grow. Within a few weeks tall stems emerge, producing large flowers in shades of red, white, pink and bi-colour. Because they require no watering or maintenance, waxed amaryllis bulbs are a popular decorative feature and an excellent gift idea.

After Flowering

Once flowering has finished, the wax can be removed and the bulb planted in a pot with free-draining mix to grow on for future seasons. With proper care the bulb may flower again in its natural spring cycle.
