Very pretty. I got a pink one at Lowes this weekend for $3.00. It says to plant it in the garden and it will bloom in the fall. I was wondering if I planted it now in a pot if it would bloom in the house?

Yes, Plant it in the pot! You plant it in the yard later.
Let us know how it does.

Did it Dorothy thanks. I didn't have very good luck with the others this year. They are being very slow. I think I got some again that had bloomed already. I think the one cool looking one has red mites or whatever it is that the amaryllis get. Gonna have to get out the systemic. Looks like the mealy bugs found the plants in the garage so got to try and drag out some of the plants and give them an alcohol bath. Of course hubby just called and I have to go to work today when I feel like working on the plants. Oh well duty calls.

I have never had any bugs or mite on Amaryllis. I have mine inside while they are blooming. They go from blub to bloom in about 6 weeks. Keep them watered.
I had one last year that didn't bloom. Just the blub I guess.
I don't know alot about them but trying to learn.Check the Amaryllis form here on GW. I'm sure they can answer any questions.
Good luck and please post a picture when it blooms.

Thats where I found out this one has the red ich. I didn't know about it until I went over there and was looking for reasons for the crunchy tips on the bud and leaves and after I read about it and looked at the base of the leaves it has the red splotches. You can't see these mites like the ones brugs get. They are clear they said.

Did they offer any help??? What can you do to get rid off them???
