Enjoy the sensational double white flowers of this South African Amaryllis before the end of the year! Amaryllis bulbs grown in South Africa produce the same large, richly colored blooms as Dutch Amaryllis, but are harvested sooner and are ready for shipment in early October. Shipped in a 7-inch wicker basket.

The shapely blooms and rich, iridescent colors of Amaryllis light up a cold day like nothing else we know. We carefully prepare these tropical bulbs so they require only room temperatures, regular watering, and bright light to deliver a truly spectacular performance, a process that is great fun to watch.

Our bulbs are guaranteed to produce two flower stems, each with at least four blooms, and are easily grown on from year to year. South African Amaryllis will bloom 6–8 weeks from arrival.
