Easy amaryllis
Exotic amaryllis, with its large, trumpetshaped blooms, comes in a range of lovely shades, from white and apple-blossom pink to scarlet – and some even have striped petals. Once planted, the bulbs should flower within six to eight weeks. For something different, check out bakker.com’s Velvet TouchZ® amaryllis bulbs, which are covered with brightly coloured, decorative felt. Each bulb produces two long-lasting flower stems. The large bulb comes with a metal stand so that the bulb stays upright and the plant needs neither compost nor water!
