Hippeastrum 'Little Devil'

Strikingly scarlet, this little beauty is too dainty to be evil. The flowers delicate, star shaped face definitely looks like it's up to mischief. Hadeco Amaryllis are an exciting new development in the Horticultural world. Size for size, they will outperform any others as far as number of stalks per bulb, number of blooms per stalk and size of blooms is concerned. Developed especially for pot culture, these amaryllis have stout stems and the leaves often grow simultaneously with the flowers. All Hadeco varieties have passed through extensive testing and are among the very best hippeastrum hybrids in the world. They are selected to be easily forced, long lasting, and disease resistant. This photo is courtesy of www.emaryllis.com Bulbs are officially 16-18 cm around. This was the approximate size at harvest time, but normally the bulbs shrink in storage. I would describe the bulbs the size of a large egg. There is some variation with each variety, and actual size depends on the harvest each year. Stock is limited, so order now to ensure availability.
