Plant Care & Growing Tips

Caring for your Orange Sovereign waxed amaryllis bulb is incredibly simple, as it’s designed to be a truly low-maintenance plant. The primary requirement is to find a suitable location for display. Place the bulb in a spot where it will receive bright, indirect light. While it doesn’t need direct sunlight, a well-lit area will encourage stronger growth and more vibrant blooms. Avoid placing it in direct, intense sunlight, which can cause the wax to melt or the bulb to overheat. Similarly, keep it away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, as these can dry out the bulb prematurely.

No watering or soil is needed for this special no-fuss amaryllis. The wax coating acts as a self-contained system, providing all the moisture and nutrients the bulb needs to sprout and bloom. Once the shoots begin to emerge, you might want to rotate the bulb every few days to ensure even growth towards the light, preventing the stalks from leaning excessively. The ideal temperature range for blooming is typically between 60-75°F (15-24°C). Cooler temperatures might slow down the blooming process, while excessively warm temperatures could shorten the lifespan of the flowers. There’s no need for fertilization, staking, or repotting. Simply enjoy the unfolding beauty of your amaryllis bulb as it transforms your space.
