If you’re looking to make a dramatic statement with an indoor flowering plant, this mammoth amaryllis bulb will really stand out. Unlike regular amaryllis bulbs, which are 26 inches in diameter, this mammoth bulb is 40 inches in diameter. The mammoth amaryllis bulb will produce many stems, as opposed to just the single stem of the smaller bulbs, and each stem will produce several gorgeous, exotic blooms. As such, these bulbs do need a larger container to grow well. Mammoth amaryllis bulbs make an excellent gift choice for the holidays. The large, dramatic and colorful trumpet-shaped blooms of the amaryllis have a lovely fragrance, and they come in a variety of vivid colors such as white, shades of red, pinks and burgundy. Some varieties even display two different colors on their long, tapered petals. Amaryllis bulbs grow and flower easily indoors, thriving in a sunny location in your home.
