Amaryllis, Large Flowering 'Lilac Wonder'

Sun Exposure: full sun, partial shade Flower Color: pink Level of Care: easy

You'll think spring has arrived early when you witness this winter wonder. Resembling old-fashioned lilacs in color, the dark pink blooms of 'Lilac Wonder' are a cool contrast to the traditional reds and greens of the season. If trumpet describes the shape of most amaryllis blossoms, then this brassy, large-flowering variety bellows out a trio of tuba-size blooms -- measuring an impressive 9 inches across - -on each of two 18-inch-tall stems.
