'Rilona' Hippeastrum, Amaryllis - pre-1870 Heirloom

Rilona's rare color will make guests wonder in awe. The salmon colored blooms have an elegance fitting for the holidays in any setting. Additionally, they are an heirloom variety and have been around for over 150 years. It had a resurgence in popularity in the 1960’s. Our bulbs are some of the largest available at 36/38 cm. It is pretty common to see 32+ cm sizing which means they are probably 32/33 cm in size.  Bigger bulbs means bigger and more blooms for the holidays. 

Amaryllis is commonly used when referring to Hippeastrum.  These flowers are commonly used for winter time blooms for those of us up north while our southern customers get to enjoy these in winter and in the summer.  

Simply plant your bulbs, water, and give sunshine and in 6-8 weeks, you will have beautiful blossoms. You can keep your bulbs planted to enjoy their green leaves and bring them right outside at spring.  They will bloom periodically.  ATo get them ready for Christmas,
