For fans of purple, this is the closest we've seen to date in the amaryllis world. It's more of a deep magenta, but if you squint, it's close!

Estella's magenta, trumpet shaped blossoms are accented by a white center stripe and finished with a pointed tip that often exhibits a tiny jaunty twist. Mix with Amaryllis White Christmas for a magical New Year's Eve dinner party display.

These are the perfect flower for early winter blooms. 10-12 weeks after planting the bulb will reward you with a gorgeous orchid-like display. Water sparingly after planting (keep soil barely moist), and just slightly increase watering once you see new growth. Amaryllis like to stay on the dry side until they begin to flower.
