Amaryllis Bulbs never died...what do I do with them?
Comments (2)The normal bloom time for Amaryllis (Hippeastrum) is early summer or late spring. If you want to force for blooming out of season, the energy of the bulb needs to be boosted by a full summer in the growing season. Then forced into an early dormancy which can be broken when you want it to bloom out of season. It is too late to force dormancy this year. I would let them go into normal dormant state in the sunroom and next spring after the last frost, either plant them in the garden, or sink the pot in the garden, and enjoy an early bloom, allow the plant to flourish through the summer until late Aug. or early Sept. when you can force into dormancy, and force into bloom after at least 2 months of the dormant state. You will probably be a little late for the holidays. Good luck. Al...See MoreHelp! aloe plant alert! has it died yet?
Comments (6)Soft & mushy is pretty much the end of the line I'm sorry to tell you. I don't believe you can save it. You can wait & see if it produces any new growth from the center, but if the center is also soft & mushy, it's a goner, especially if it's turning brown or black. I think it's time to toss it & go out & buy a new one, sorry....See MoreAmaryllis leaves
