Do you love brightening up your home with the spectacular blooms of amaryllis throughout the winter season? Wondering how often to water or fertilize the plants, or how to prevent the flower stalks from curving, leaning, or flopping? In this excerpt from episode 15, Lisa and Layne are joined by Val Schirmer of Three Toads Farm to discuss tips and tricks for growing amaryllis (Hippeastrum) indoors. They cover watering, fertilizing, where to locate your amaryllis, tips for keeping the stalks straight, and what to do if your amaryllis grows too tall and starts flopping. Listen to the podcast and get ready to enjoy showstopping amaryllis blooms in your home all winter long!
