Why Choose Amaryllis Bulbs?
With bold, trumpet-shaped flowers in vibrant reds, crisp whites, soft pinks, and striking patterns, Amaryllis instantly adds elegance to any room, garden, or gift.
Amaryllis bulbs are famously low-maintenance. They thrive indoors with minimal care — ideal for beginners, busy people, and kids.
Â
While most plants go dormant in winter, amaryllis comes alive. Plant in late fall and enjoy full blooms during the holidays and into the new year.
Â
Unlike cut flowers, amaryllis bulbs can be saved and replanted. With simple care, they’ll bloom again season after season — more value for your money.
Â
The tall, elegant stems and bright blooms look stunning in modern, rustic, or festive homes. From holiday table centerpieces to living room accents and office conversation starters.
Â
Watching your amaryllis grow — from sprout to bud to full bloom — brings a sense of peace, patience, and connection to nature.

Â
- Use a pot about 6–8 inches deep with drainage holes.
- The bulb should fit snugly, with about an inch of space around the sides.
2. Add Soil
- Use The Bruce Company’s own blend of potting mix.
- Place the bulb with the pointed end up and the bottom two-thirds buried in soil.
3. Water Lightly
- Water once when planting.
- Then water sparingly until growth appears – just enough to keep the soil slightly moist.
4. Let the Light In
- Place in a warm, bright spot with indirect sunlight to speed up their growth.
- Once it starts growing, rotate the pot every few days to keep it growing straight.
5. Bloom Care
- Your amaryllis will bloom in about 6–8 weeks after planting.
6. Rebloom Care
-
Water and fertilize your amaryllis throughout the summer months.
-
Around Labor Day, begin the dormancy process. Trim back the foliage and gently remove the bulb from its soil.
-
Place the bulbs in a shallow box and store them in a cool, airy, dry, and dark place.
-
In mid-November, replant the bulbs in fresh potting mix and water lightly.
