That means you can plant in fall and enjoy gorgeous red-and-white blooms during the holiday season with a little planning.

Watch as strong green growth emerges, elegant flower stalks develop, and spectacular double blossoms gradually unfold.
It's like watching a little holiday miracle!
Beautiful Beyond the Holidays
And the magic doesn't have to end when the flowers fade!
Amaryllis Blossom Peacock makes a wonderful houseplant, allowing gardeners to enjoy its attractive foliage long after the holiday flowering season.
With proper care, Amaryllis bulbs can be maintained from year to year and encouraged to bloom again.
During the warmer months, potted Amaryllis can enjoy spending time outdoors in a protected location once temperatures are reliably warm.
In suitable warm climates, Blossom Peacock can also be grown outdoors as a perennial, producing gorgeous spring flowers in the garden.
Whether you're decorating for Christmas, searching for a beautiful holiday gift, or adding an elegant flowering houseplant to your collection, Amaryllis Blossom Peacock bulbs deliver spectacular color, luxurious texture, and unforgettable seasonal charm.

When & How to Plant Amaryllis Blossom Peacock Bulbs Indoors
Plant in Fall for a Spectacular Display of Festive Red & White Holiday Flowers!
Growing Amaryllis Blossom Peacock indoors is a wonderful way to bring vibrant flowers into your home during the colder months.
These magnificent bulbs are relatively easy to grow and reward gardeners with luxurious double blossoms when provided with warmth, bright light, and proper moisture.
Indoor Planting Instructions
-
When to Plant: Fall through winter, depending on your desired flowering period.
-
Bloom Time: Approximately 40–60 days after planting under suitable conditions.
-
Container Size: Choose a sturdy pot with drainage holes, approximately 1–2 inches wider than the bulb.
-
Planting Depth: Position the bulb with its upper one-third to one-half above the potting mix.
-
Soil: Use a quality, well-draining indoor potting mix.
-
Light: Place in a bright indoor location with plenty of natural light.
-
Temperature: Normal warm indoor temperatures are generally suitable for active growth.
-
Watering: Water lightly after planting, then increase watering as roots and shoots develop. Avoid keeping the potting mix constantly soggy.
Once growth begins, rotate the container periodically to help keep the flowering stalks growing upright.
Because fully double Amaryllis flowers can be large and heavy, a decorative plant support may be helpful if the stems begin to lean.
Helpful Holiday Tip: If you're hoping for Christmas blooms, consider planting your Blossom Peacock Amaryllis approximately 6–9 weeks before your desired display date.
Flowering times vary, so planting several bulbs at different intervals can help extend your enjoyment of these spectacular winter flowers.
How to Care for Amaryllis Blossom Peacock After Flowering
Don't toss that beautiful bulb when the flowers fade!
With proper care, Amaryllis Blossom Peacock can be enjoyed as a houseplant and encouraged to bloom again in future seasons.
After flowering:
-
Remove Spent Flowers: Snip off faded blossoms to keep the plant tidy.
-
Trim the Flower Stalk: Once flowering is complete, cut the stalk back while leaving healthy leaves intact.
-
Keep the Foliage Growing: Continue providing bright light, appropriate watering, and occasional balanced fertilizer during active growth.
-
Move Outdoors in Summer: Once nighttime temperatures are reliably above approximately 50°F, gradually acclimate the pot to outdoor conditions.
-
Protect From Frost: Bring the bulb indoors before temperatures become too cold in fall.
-
Encourage Future Flowering: Healthy bulbs may rebloom with continued care and, when needed, a managed rest period.
Amaryllis reblooming depends on bulb health, adequate light, stored energy, and growing conditions. A second flowering display is possible but not guaranteed.
Growing Amaryllis Blossom Peacock Outdoors
Live in a warm climate? Blossom Peacock can become a spectacular garden perennial!
In suitable frost-free or nearly frost-free locations, Amaryllis Blossom Peacock bulbs can be planted outdoors for beautiful spring flowers.
The supplier lists outdoor perennial growing conditions in approximately Zones 8b–10, with additional mention of Zone 11.
For outdoor planting:
-
When to Plant: Spring, after the danger of frost has passed.
-
Sunlight: Full sun to light shade.
-
Soil: Fertile, well-draining garden soil.
-
Planting Depth: Position the bulb with its neck near or slightly above the soil surface, according to local conditions.
-
Watering: Provide moderate moisture during active growth while avoiding waterlogged soil.
-
Bloom Time: Mid-Spring in suitable climates.
Outdoor success depends on local winter temperatures, drainage, and protection from freezing conditions.
In colder climates, Amaryllis should generally be grown in containers and brought indoors before frost.
Our Cottage Garden Tip
Create a holiday display that's elegant, romantic, and just a little bit magical!
For a breathtaking centerpiece, plant Amaryllis Blossom Peacock bulbs in decorative ceramic pots and surround them with fresh evergreen branches, pinecones, and soft white holiday decorations.
The gorgeous white petals and pink-red streaks look especially beautiful against deep green foliage and natural holiday textures.
Want a more dramatic display?
Group several Blossom Peacock Amaryllis pots together at different heights to create a spectacular collection of double red-and-white flowers.
For an elegant winter windowsill, pair Blossom Peacock with white Paperwhite Narcissus, evergreen foliage, and soft seasonal greenery.
Its festive coloring also makes it a wonderful living gift for friends, family members, teachers, and fellow flower lovers.
Maryland Gardeners: Amaryllis Blossom Peacock is best enjoyed as an indoor flowering bulb during fall and winter in most Maryland locations.
After flowering, maintain it as a houseplant, then move the container outdoors for the warmer months once temperatures are reliably mild.
Choose a sheltered location with bright light or gentle morning sunshine while gradually acclimating the plant to outdoor conditions.
Bring the container back indoors before chilly fall nights and frost arrive.
Because Maryland winters are generally too cold for reliable outdoor survival, avoid leaving Amaryllis Blossom Peacock planted in the ground year-round.
Important: Amaryllis bulbs and plants are toxic if ingested, particularly to cats and dogs. Keep bulbs, foliage, and flowers away from curious pets and children.
