I have lots and lots of brugmansias to trade, rooted and/or cuttings. Many nice varieties, or I can trade several older varieties.
I'm buying a hurricane vase and I'd like to put the bulbs inthe vase inside for christmas decoration. Do you think they'll bloom soon if planted in rocks in a vase?
I'm new to amaryllis bulbs, , how much light do they require as well. Thanks in advance. The vase i'm going to buy is very large , large enough for 2 medium sized bulbs, or blooming size.
Let me know if your interested, and I'll gather up a list, or you can let me know which varieties of brugs you are lookin g for,
I also have lots and lots of other plants I can trade too, I'm not really good of keeping records of what's in the greenhouse, so bear with me as I make a list up.
CLOSED: Looking for 2 amaryllis bulbs/ have brugmansias to trade
On second thought, I"m sorry all. I'm just going to go over to lowe's and buy one, that way I'll have a little more time to prepare it. but would like to get those questions answered.
I'm going to leave this open for a bit longer to see if I can get those questions answered.
thanks

Hi Kathy,
Mine are planted in my flower beds. They are the first to bloom in yard as early as end of February. The multiply like rabbits this way. Probably doesn't answer your question. Sorry,
Daisy
Are yours the belladona amaryllis bulbs? I have some of those, they do multiply like rabbits LOL. I was thinking of those big beautiful tropical ones, that are all over lowes and home depot this time of year, they have to bloom now if their selling them now don't they?
kathy
Hey Kathy,
I don't have Belladona. I have the following.
Hippeeastrum Apple Blossom
Hippeeastrum Butterfly
Hippeastrum Charisma
Hippeeastrum Green Goddess
Hippeeastrum Lemon Lime
Hippeeastrum Mr. Hughs (this is not a registered name)
Hippeeastrum Papilio
Hippeeastrum Picotee
Red and White Double Unknown
Solid Red Single unknown
These grow in pots
Hippeeastrum reticulatum variegata striatifolium white strip
Hippeeastrum reticulatum variegata striatiflolium yellow strip
Hippeeastrus reticulatum var "Bangkok Rose'
Good Luck with your search. They do have some beauties at and home depot.
Daisy
OH gosh, Sorry, I should have known you had all those fancy ones, I saw a few of them on the internet, they are georgious. I'm so new to them, and don't know a thing about how to raise them, you have all these growing outside? Wow!! Do you have to dig any of them up? OUr winters get pretty cold sometimes, I suppose I'd have to grow them in pots. Sometimes I wish I lived in warmer climate LOL but I don't miss it during the heat of the summer
Kathy,
Yes, the are low maintenance bedding perennials for me here. They are planted in full sun and basically just take care of themselves. I provide no winter protection.
Daisy
Daisy.....your lucky I have to pot mine up............I think Kathy does too..!!
No doubt, if I had any that is LOL
Kathy try those from Lowes or HD.....I still have mine that I bought years ago from there...
I will , thanks, going to go there this friday when I head to town again
They have Red Lions 3 in a pack for $8.97.........they are pretty if you like bright red..I have several and they make nice gifts too..
Ohhh Daisy...I am soooo jealous, you have some of my favorites !! Makes lots of pictures this February when they are all blooming. I just love the new Lemon Lime, Green Goddess, and Bangkok Rose. I may break down and buy those this year :)) I have several of the Apple Blossom, Red Lion and Papilio and a few solid red that the blooms get as large as a dinner plate. Such a show they put on !! Do you have a favorite place to buy yours ?
God bless, Margo
This is by my Mom's computer. You can force them for
winter bloom.
That seems to be a quite popular color darmadoll
You know before I even saw flowerjunkie's post I was looking at the lemonlime and butterfly on ebay. fell in love with them, I 'm in the process of purchasing them now, can't wait, they did say they would bloom anywhere inside about 60 days after planted. and then to plant them outside inthe spring to let them grow for foliage then dig them up in the fall and pot them for flowering inside during the winter again, They didn't say that they would wilt when dug up or what to do with the green that wilts if it wilts. I know it will wilt when dug up. But i'm learning. Going to town tomorrow and going to look lowes and walmart over for some other beauties. I also bought some paper whites to hopefully force blooming inside too
Here is a picture of my Red Lion what a beauty she is
Brent and Backys is having there half price sale on Amaryllis....what a great deal on so many !! I bought 8 including the 2 I mentioned above. I won't have time to force them by Christmas, but they will be gorgeous by mid January when everything is so "not green" !! (LOL)
God bless, Margo
oh dear, going to have to go there and have a look see, thanks
kathy
All I saw there were the belladona lilies, (naked lady bulbs) is that all the amaryllis they had?
kathy
Kathy go to indoor bulbs on their site..thats where their at.........alot are sold out but theres still some left,thats nice.
Thanks, I saw the page with all the amaryllis on it, their the same prices as ebay rightnow, will check out the indoor bulbs page though
I did check out that page, they have some of the same ones i'm looking at on ebay, right now though, the buy it now on ebay is cheaper than those prices, unless you buy the 5 or more. 9.99 a wack is high dollar when you want 7 or 8 diff ones LOL this is what ebay is selling alot of them for
B&B's are half off...

I see comes up in check out, as half off, that's fantastic, do you have any idea how big the bulbs were? were they blooming size?
I may have to order a few of them LOL
Yes their really nice and healthy....and are blooming size...
Betcha you order more then a few........lol..........I sure did...2 times..
I think I just ordered 5 of them. they were out of alot of what I wanted. and wouldn't dare look around on the site, that would be the death of my pocket book LOL
Yeah good idea............don't do what I did bought more...They always have a late Spring sale too..!!I'm sure you will be pleased with their bulbs...and want more..
Sorry everyone...try looking here at Brent and Becky's..."Hippeastrum" instead of Amaryllis. I bought several 2 days ago that are gorgeous.
God bless, Margo
