The deep cranberry color is amazing. The flowers are well formed and velvety. I bought this bulb as a gift for my mother. She raved about it!
I visited her while it was in bloom, so now, I'm preordering a bulb for myself. This isn’t just a satisfactory flower, it's full of grace and beauty.
Flowers are true to color. A cranberry color. Petals have a velvet texture to them. I bought this bulb about 2 months ago. It has bloomed with 4 flowers on 1 stalk and now another stalk has grown. This stalk has a bud on it that ready to bloom too. I'm satisfied with this purchase due to the performance of the bulb in the short time I've had it.
I bought this last year and it grew very nicely. Now, a year later, it's still a very healthy bulb and I'm getting ready for a 2nd year of growth.
So frequently plants are not as nice as the picture, but I must advise in this case the flowers are truly a very deep cranberry red. Also, the bulb has bloomed three times. I can't remember ever having one bloom three times, maybe twice but never three times First bloom was at Christmas and the last just came out! Very Impressive! Having said all that about the bulb, customer service with this company stinks!
As stated this is a deep red, almost burgundy in color. Large bloom
Out of 6 amaryllis bulbs, 5 were either rotten, moldy, or both. Thought I coukd possibly save another one, but no luck. So I got one bulb for $113.70. Should have known the price was too low to believe.
