Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Blushing Rose Pink. Hadeco Amaryllis are an exciting new development in the Horticultural world. Size for size, Hadeco bulbs 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. Bulbs are officially 24-26 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 base ball. There is some variation with each variety, and actual size depends on the harvest each year.
