Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to water it? No. The waxed amaryllis bulb contains all the stored energy it needs to grow and bloom without watering.
When will it bloom? Under normal indoor conditions, your amaryllis typically blooms in 4-6 weeks after arrival. Bloom time may vary slightly depending on room temperature and available light.
How tall will it grow? Flower stems typically reach approximately 12-18 inches tall.
What makes Red Lion special? Red Lion is prized for its rich crimson-red color and large, dramatic flowers. Its bold blooms can reach up to 6 inches wide, creating a classic holiday display that pairs beautifully with elegant seasonal decor.
Can I decorate with more than one? Absolutely. Grouping two or more gold waxed amaryllis together with fresh evergreen garland, candles, or other holiday accents creates a stunning tablescape or mantel display. Many customers also purchase one to enjoy at home and another to give as a gift.
Why does my bulb look different from another one? Every waxed amaryllis bulb is naturally unique. Bulb size and shape vary by variety, but each premium bulb is carefully selected to produce beautiful, healthy blooms. Natural variation is part of what makes every living gift one of a kind.
Can I plant it after it blooms? Waxed amaryllis bulbs are designed primarily as decorative flowering gifts. While some bulbs may continue growing after flowering, long-term performance cannot be guaranteed.

The waxed bulb is coming along. (Red) bud[s] have been growing in size and, I expect, will soon be opening. I'm looking forward to that!
A gift amaryllis last year consisted of multiple stalks, and was unimaginably gorgeous. I purchsed a single stalk, which will suffice (and thrill) in its allocated spot in my living room.

Waxed Amaryllis Bulb Care Guide
Waxed amaryllis bulbs are designed to bloom with zero maintenance–just place it in a sunny spot and enjoy the show!
Waxed Amaryllis Bulb Care Guide
Water: Do not water. The wax coating contains everything the bulb needs to grow and bloom.
Light: Bright, indirect sunlight is best—think windowsills or well-lit desks.
Placement & Temperature: Keep indoors at room temperature (65–75°F). Avoid drafts or cold windows.
Rotation: Turn the bulb every few days to help it grow upright and avoid leaning.
Support: If it starts to tilt, gently support it with a stake or display it in a narrow vase or decorative holder.
Bulb Bloom Time
Bloom Start: After 4 to 6 weeks at room temperature, depending on variety.
Bloom Time: Approximately 3 weeks.
Bloom Count: 1 or 2 flower stalks with up to 4 blooms per stalk.
Bloom End: Approximately 3 weeks.
Waxed amaryllis bulbs are designed as single-use, decorative holiday gifts and do not rebloom. Because the roots have been removed and the bulb is sealed in wax, it cannot be replanted or reused.
What to Do with a Waxed Amaryllis After It Blooms
Compost it (if the wax is removed first).
Dispose of it responsibly with household waste
Upcycle it! Use the waxed bulb base as a unique holiday decoration or centerpiece filler once dry.
IMPORTANT: Ornamental plant material should not be eaten. Keep away from pets and children.
