Are you looking for beautiful waxed amaryllis bulbs? Then you've come to the right place at Fam Flower Farm. Thanks to this cheerful bulb, you can enjoy the presence of flowers even in winter. A bright spot in a dark and cold time.
Waxed amaryllis bulb
The wax amaryllis from Fam Flower Farm is of high quality. A wax amaryllis is a so-called dry bloomer. Everything they need to grow is already in the waxed amaryllis bulb. So this is not only a decorative layer, but also protective. After flowering, you can peel off the wax layer from the bulb and give the bulb a second life! You can read more about it in our blog how to get an Amaryllis to bloom again.
Amaryllis bulbs without water
You wouldn't expect it, but huge amaryllis flower stalks can grow from such a small bulb. You can already see a small part from the tops you see coming out of the amaryllis bulb in wax. These will eventually produce beautiful large amaryllis flowers. We sell the XXL bulbs so they definitely produce 2 stems and sometimes a second bloom.
The nice thing is that this starts within just a few weeks. As soon as you place the bulb in your warm living room, you will see leaves appear within a few days. Place the amaryllis in a bright spot at a temperature between 18 and 21 degrees. Preferably not close to the heating. The stems often grow towards the light, so turn the bulb regularly so that the plant continues to grow proportionally.
So, what is the best way to care for an amaryllis bulb? Actually not at all ;-) A wax amaryllis is a type of amaryllis on water. They don't need any care at all. No soil, no nutrients or water.
History of amaryllis
The scientific name of amaryllis bulbs is Hippeastrum species: a genus of plants in the amaryllis family. This includes about 30 genera, including daffodils, Clivia, Alstroemeria and (snow)bells.
The true genus amaryllis is also included, but it looks quite different from the Hippeastrum. That we call them so anyway is because they used to belong to this genus. These hybrid forms, like the Hippeastrum, do have the strongest stems and the largest flowers. At least two stems appear from each bulb that have multiple flowers.

White amaryllis
The white amaryllis is the showpiece of this family. The colour reminds one of a winter wonderland and a white Christmas.
Tip from us! Does December for you also represent atmosphere and cosiness? The amaryllis is also called the knight's star. The large flowers bring warmth into your home during these cold days.
The season is also in November/December, when Christmas is at its peak. Around Christmas, therefore, these flowers can be admired everywhere. A wonderful upgrade for any Christmas arrangement. Combine different colours on a large bowl, for example. Even more fun in combination with Christmas ribbons, baubles and lights.
Or give one as a gift! A great birthday, Christmas or New Year's gift. Great under the tree or when visiting family. You don't need a green thumb for it!
