Hippeastrum Apricot Parfait (season: Aug-Sep)
Botanical Name: Hippeastrum x hybridum
Large blooms in pastel shades of apricot and white. An excellent cut flower with up to four flowers on each stem. Easy to grow in pots or in the garden.
How To Grow | Prepare the soil by adding organic matter and compost. Plant in a moist well drained soil, protected from wind but with plenty of sunlight. Leave neck of bulb protruding above the soil and side water weekly during dry spells as Hippeastrums don’t like overhead watering. Spray lightly with fungicide and protect from snails and slugs. For Christmas flowering, keep bulbs in the crisper section of your refrigerator until mid November |
