Plant Care & Growing Tips

Caring for your waxed amaryllis bulb is remarkably simple, designed for maximum enjoyment with minimal effort. The primary goal is to provide suitable conditions for the bulb to sprout and flower, remembering that its needs are largely self-contained within the wax. The most crucial aspect of amaryllis bulb care is placement. Choose an indoor location that receives bright, indirect sunlight. A south-facing window is often ideal, but avoid direct, intense sunlight which can overheat the bulb and potentially melt the wax. Conversely, too little light can lead to leggy growth and fewer blooms.

Temperature is another important factor. Maintain a consistent room temperature, ideally between 60-75°F (15-24°C). Avoid placing the bulb near drafts, heat vents, or in areas with extreme temperature fluctuations, as this can stress the bulb and affect its growth. Since this is a no-water amaryllis, you do not need to water it. The wax coating provides all the necessary moisture and nutrients. Resist the urge to add water, as this can lead to rot and compromise the bulb’s health. Simply observe and enjoy as the flower stalk emerges and the beautiful blooms unfold. After the flowering period, the bulb will typically not rebloom in its waxed state, as it has expended its stored energy. However, some gardeners choose to remove the wax and attempt to re-pot the bulb for future growth, though success varies.
