Description
Prepare to be bowled over by the undeniable charm of Hippeastrum 'Amadeus Candy'. Oozing with romance, it will bring the freshness and delight of a spring garden into your home in the midst of dreary mid-winter. The sophisticated ivory-white petals of Amaryllis 'Amadeus Candy' are softly tipped with delicate rosy-pink, with the two colours blending together seamlessly, as if an artist has just passed with their brush to create an exquisite painting. This Amaryllis will bring a lightness of touch to your home, providing a tasteful focal point, and a note of optimism in the colder months of the year.
If you value subtlety and grace in a flower, but still want a great performer that gives a wow factor a room, then Hippeastrum 'Amadeus Candy' is for you. Its sturdy stems each produce several large flowers radiating outwards, making it a wonderful centre-piece. Even better, whilst the first stems are busy putting on a show for you, you are likely to get a new stem emerging from the bulb, giving you even longer to enjoy these beautiful blooms.
