Except that all it needs is water, sunlight, and the occasional kind word. I'm not a complete failure! Yay!

  • wait wait wait wait....Are U Jerry Trainor the guy from iCarly? U just look like him.

  • Don't know if you got your answer...

    Lots of light and little water while blooming. After the flower wilts let it continue to get full sun as long as possible.

    After a few months clean the bulb off and put it in the fridge... for at least a month.. Once you remove the the bulb from fridge... repot like you did in the video.... then put it back in high light.... it'll bloom a month later...

  • Well,my Amaryllis are planted outside and they stay there over winter with no problem.They bloom every year.I live in Indiana where the winters are cold!

  • LUVLY

  • That's not an Amaryllis/Hippeastrum, it's a Triffid! :)

  • @KOOLFACE23

    Yes, it's soil, not dirt. Why do people call it this? As often as not it is also called compost when packed into plastic bags, as in this case.

  • Amaryllis hippeastrum (yes). Boy or girl (don't know). Eccentric (probably). Thank you and good night.

  • Awesome plant, THAT THING IS HUGE!........ are you a guy?

  • Im sorry i dont mean to be a jerk but for future reference its soil your planting in not dirt.

  • Hope you'll be able to keep it for next year.

    Nice video anyway. :-)
