Amaryllis 'Pink Beauty'

Amaryllis 'Pink Beauty' is an indoor bulb with a softly luminous charm, producing large trumpet-shaped flowers in white and pale blush, richly veined with rose-pink. The colour gathers most intensely at the throat, then feathers out across each petal in fine painterly lines, giving the blooms a fresh, almost watercolour effect. There is a hint of green at the petal tips and base, adding just enough coolness to keep all that pink looking elegant rather than sugary. Held on strong stems above neat, strap-like foliage, Hippeastrum 'Pink Beauty' makes a graceful winter display for windowsills, sideboards and bright corners that could use a little lift.

Plant Amaryllis 'Pink Beauty' in a well-drained pot, leaving the upper part of the bulb visible, and place it somewhere bright and warm. Water sparingly at first, then more regularly once growth begins, avoiding wet compost around the bulb. The delicate colouring of Amaryllis 'Pink Beauty' looks especially refined in simple ceramic pots, where the striped flowers can shine without unnecessary competition. Long-lasting and wonderfully easy to grow, Amaryllis 'Pink Beauty' is ideal for seasonal displays, thoughtful gifting or bringing a little elegance indoors. Fresh, romantic and beautifully detailed, Hippeastrum 'Pink Beauty' is winter flowering with a very pretty sense of occasion.
