Aquaro Dutch Amaryllis
Description
Amaryllis ‘Aquaro’ reaches 18 to 22 inches tall, featuring 6 to 7 inch double blooms in rich, velvety red with subtle darker undertones that deepen toward the petal centers. Each jumbo-sized bulb (36/+) produces three sturdy stalks, typically carrying four to five full, layered blossoms per stem, flowering 8 to 12 weeks after planting.
Note: Unlike Southern Hemisphere–grown amaryllis, Dutch bulbs do not bloom in time for Christmas—flowering instead from January through March.

Light: Place in a bright, indirect light location indoors, rotating the pot every few days so the flower stalks grow straigh
