A Showstopping Amaryllis with Extraordinary Color
Love flowers with gorgeous, painterly petals?
You're going to adore Gervase!
Unlike a traditional solid-red Amaryllis, Gervase features a stunning blend of bright red, soft pink, and crisp white.
Its enormous petals have a beautiful feathered appearance, with colors that create a romantic, almost hand-painted effect.
The striking red anthers add another layer of detail, making each blossom even more extraordinary.
Growing approximately 18–24 inches tall while in bloom, this gorgeous Amaryllis creates an elegant display above its attractive green foliage.
And with a spread of approximately 12 inches, it makes a beautiful focal point in decorative indoor pots.
Whether you're decorating for Christmas, brightening a winter windowsill, or gifting a beautiful flowering bulb, Amaryllis Gervase is sure to impress.
Gorgeous Holiday Flowers & Year-Round Houseplant Beauty
There's something magical about watching an Amaryllis bloom indoors during the colder months.
While the garden rests outside, Gervase produces magnificent flowers that bring warmth, color, and a touch of luxury into your home.
Its brilliant red, pink, and white blossoms are especially beautiful for Christmas decorating, holiday centerpieces, winter houseplants, and thoughtful gardening gifts.
Place it in a decorative pot near a bright window, arrange it as a festive table accent, or enjoy its extraordinary flowers as a seasonal centerpiece.
And once the blooms have faded, don't toss your bulb!
With proper care, Amaryllis can continue growing as a houseplant and may flower again in future seasons.

How to Plant Amaryllis Gervase Bulbs Indoors
Ready to grow your own magnificent holiday flowers?
Amaryllis Gervase is wonderfully easy to plant!
-
Choose a Container: Select a sturdy pot with drainage holes, approximately 1–2 inches wider than the bulb.
-
Add Potting Mix: Use a quality, well-draining indoor potting mix.
-
Position the Bulb: Place the bulb with its roots facing downward and leave the upper one-third to one-half of the bulb exposed above the soil.
-
Water Lightly: Water after planting, allowing excess moisture to drain away.
-
Provide Bright Light: Place the pot near a bright window where it receives plenty of light.
-
Watch It Grow: Water moderately as growth develops, allowing the upper soil to dry slightly between waterings.
Under suitable conditions, Amaryllis Gervase typically blooms in approximately 40–60 days.
Flowering time can vary with temperature, bulb maturity, and growing conditions, so plant ahead if you're hoping for blooms near a particular holiday.
Helpful Tip: Rotate your pot occasionally to encourage even growth, and provide discreet support if the large flower stems become top-heavy.
Caring for Amaryllis Gervase After Blooming
Want to enjoy your gorgeous Amaryllis beyond the holidays?
Once the flowers fade, remove the spent blossoms and eventually trim the flower stalk, but keep the healthy green leaves.
The foliage helps the bulb gather energy for future growth.
Continue providing bright light, moderate watering, and appropriate houseplant fertilizer during active growth.
In warm climates within Zones 9–11, Amaryllis may also be grown outdoors in suitable conditions.
In colder regions, including most of Maryland, keep the bulb indoors during freezing weather.
With good care and an appropriate rest period, established bulbs may rebloom, although flowering is not guaranteed every year.
Our Cottage Garden Tip
Create a breathtaking holiday display with romantic red, pink, and white Amaryllis!
For a gorgeous winter arrangement, place Amaryllis Gervase in a decorative ceramic pot and surround it with evergreen accents, pinecones, or festive ribbons.
Its magnificent feathered flowers are so beautiful that they need very little embellishment!
For an especially dramatic display, group several Amaryllis pots together at different stages of growth.
You'll enjoy watching the elegant stems emerge and the spectacular flowers unfold.
Maryland Gardeners: Gervase is a wonderful choice for indoor winter color. Because it's hardy outdoors only in Zones 9–11, grow it as a houseplant or move containers indoors before cold weather arrives.
Pet Safety: Amaryllis (Hippeastrum) is toxic to cats and dogs if ingested, particularly the bulb. Keep plants and bulbs away from pets and children.
