As part of the Nymph series, this special Amaryllis comes from distinguished breeding, featuring extra-sturdy stems and long-lasting blooms which are packed with extra petals in a sleek and silky shade of red. It’s difficult to exceed this level of glamour in a plant—to have something this top-notch bringing way more than just a splash of warm colour to your home during winter, but sheer pride and delight, is a real treat indeed.
Producing multiple flowers per stem, you can look forward to a really impressive show from Amaryllis 'Cherry Nymph'.
