Description

Enormous, velvety blooms of scarlet make Hippeastrum ‘Ferrari’ a luxurious houseplant for the festive season.  Perfect for introducing a burst of bold colour into the home, the large, trumpet-shaped flowers bloom several at a time, atop smooth, tall stems.

These architectural plants are native to South Africa, commonly referred to as Amaryllis and are usually forced to flower over the Christmas period, or during January - when a splash of vibrant colour is most welcome.

The lily-like flowers have a deep red centre, which makes the curved stamens of yellow pollen stand out, enhancing the exotic and enchanting looks of this spectacular plant.

Each bulb will produce two stems, each holding up to 5 large blooms.

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.
