"Green flowers have managed to conquer a special place in my heart over the years. I know, you expect a flower to have color, even if it is white or black, but still ... green flowers also have something. The modest and natural appearance has something beautiful.
Evergreen is a fast and energetic Amaryllis, as soon as you put her in the warmth she starts to grow. She is therefore very suitable to let bloom as a dry bulb. If you put a bulb in a deep vase or put three of them in a bowl, you will quickly be rewarded with her exotic flowers. With a small layer of water at the bottom of the vase or on the bowl, just enough to keep her roots wet, she will do a little better, but it is not really necessary.
Evergreen always blooms just as easily and her green flowers always amaze me with their enormous durability. Place her, when the stems are growing, in a good light. The fast-growing stems tend to grow in the direction of the light. Especially if they are against a dark wall they can become quite crooked. If they are in full light this is much less the case.
If you do see the stems growing crooked in the direction of the light, turn the pot half a turn every few days so that they start growing in the other direction again."

Planting and care of Amaryllis bulbs
Plant the amaryllis bulb in a sturdy pot filled with compost, leaving approximately one-third of the bulb above the surface. Place the pot in a warm, bright position and keep the compost slightly moist. With the right care, you can enjoy its impressive flowers within six to eight weeks.
An amaryllis can also be grown in water without compost. Use a suitable amaryllis vase and make sure that only the roots touch the water. This helps prevent the bulb from rotting.
Read our complete guide to planting and caring for an amaryllis bulb.
You can order amaryllis bulbs from us from the beginning of autumn. We start shipping from November, so your bulbs arrive in time to enjoy their spectacular flowers during winter and around the Christmas season.
An amaryllis can flower in the middle of winter. Once the prepared bulb is brought into room temperature, it begins to grow and flower.
Yes, you can try to keep an amaryllis bulb and bring it back into flower. We guarantee flowering in the first year, but we cannot guarantee that it will flower again in subsequent years.
After flowering, the amaryllis can continue growing in a warm, bright place, such as outdoors in the garden or in a conservatory. It then needs a cooler resting period before being moved back into warmth to encourage another flowering cycle.
Keep the potting soil moist but not waterlogged. The bulb needs relatively little water at first, but its water requirements increase once the amaryllis starts growing actively.
Amaryllis bulbs are given a cool period before flowering. When the bulb is then brought into a warm home, it responds as though spring has begun and starts to grow and bloom.
