Amarilla - life cycle

The Amarilla is grown from a bulb and are summer flowering. They grow very well in pots for people who do not have gardens. When a flower dies off, cut the stem off just above the ground. In winter, take the bulb out and preserve is in a cool, dry place, packed in wood shavings. About 2/3 months before spring, take it out and begin to water it again.
