American Dream Amaryllis Bulb

American Dream Amaryllis Bulb

A splashy and flashy amaryllis variety!

Many people aspire to live the American Dream, but here is your opportunity to own it! This flamboyant flower serves up massive 8–9" blooms that are deep red and splattered with pink and white. A thin red line outlines each colour-splashed, frilly petal, adding to the glorious display. The bulb is likely to produce 2–3 stems and about four flowers are borne on each 20–24" stalk. The striking blossoms unfurl 8–10 weeks post-planting. Amaryllis perform well outdoors in warmer climates, but these elegant lilylike plants are particularly suited for growing indoors. They make wonderful gifts for loved ones, teachers and mail carriers during the holiday season. Ships as a 26–28 cm bulb.

Important Shipping Notes:

Breck's times its shipments from Holland so that bulbs and bareroots arrive at the proper planting time (depending on climatic conditions) for each area of North America. To promote optimum stress protection in transit and your success in the garden, bareroot perennials are kept in the ground in our nurseries until fully dormant. In the Fall, these plants tend to arrive at the later end of the shipping window below.

We will pack and ship your order based on the following schedules. The type of product you order or the weather may affect the anticipated shipping schedule below. Based on the contents of your order we always strive to ship your order complete, and as early as possible in the planting season to allow for the best root development once planted.
