Bring festive cheer to your home with Amaryllis ‘Red Lion’, a stunning variety that produces large, velvety red blooms just in time for Christmas. With its bold colour and dramatic form, it's perfect as a seasonal centrepiece or a thoughtful gift.

Once planted, ‘Red Lion’ typically flowers within 5–8 weeks, allowing you to plan your planting for a show-stopping display during the holidays. Simply pot it up in autumn and watch it transform into a spectacular indoor feature.

But the magic doesn’t stop at Christmas — after blooming, the bulb can be moved outdoors in spring to a sunny, sheltered spot, where it may re-bloom in summer, giving you two flowering periods a year with a bit of care.

For a burst of vibrant colour and festive elegance, Amaryllis ‘Red Lion’ is the perfect choice to brighten your home — and maybe even your garden too!

How to plant Amaryllis for indoors

• Plant in the autumn (September to November).
• Amaryllis are tender bulbs and should be kept away from frosts. They are best grown indoors.
• Place one bulb to a 12-14cm pot. Ensure the pot has good drainage.
• Add a layer of good-quality, multi-purpose compost to the base of the pot until it is the right height for the top of the bulb to be above the rim of the pot.
• Position the bulb with the top half exposed from the soil surface allowing 3cm around the circumference of the bulb. 
• Fill the sides around the bulb with more compost. 
• Plant with the pointy end facing upwards.
• Keep well watered after planting.
• Position the pot in a warm, sunny position indoors.

How to care for Amaryllis

• After the your Amaryllis has finished flowering, cut the flower head off and leave the stem and foliage to die back naturally. 
• Once the stem turns yellow and sagging, it can all be removed. 
• Lift and store the bulb in a cool dark place before replanting again in the Autumn. 
• Alternatively, you can pop your Amaryllis outside when the weather heats up for a 2nd flowering period.
