Amaryllis Rilona

Why we love it:

• Amaryllis Rilona is a heritage variety of Amaryllis which has more than stood the test of time, still being a popular choice of houseplant to grow for its unusual salmon pink flowers
• This amaryllis (or hippeastrum) from Kapiteyn comes in kit form containing all that’s needed to grow this beautiful amaryllis from a bulb
• The box includes a bulb, pot and compost with full instructions included, making it suitable for giving to the complete novice gardener, but also a great gift for experienced gardeners who miss tending their garden in winter
• Easy to grow from a bulb in the house, amaryllis (or hippeastrum to give it its botanical name) is a popular houseplant for Christmas, and with this gift pack nothing could be easier
• Simply plant and water in accordance with the instructions and then place the pot in a warm, light position and the amaryllis should bloom within 6-10 weeks to give a tropical feel at the darkest time of year
