The Amaryllis is a flowering plant known for its large, vibrant blooms. It typically produces trumpet-shaped flowers in colors like red, pink, and white. The plant grows from a bulb and can reach heights of up to 2 feet. Amaryllis is often cultivated indoors during the winter months, making it a popular choice for holiday decorations. Native to South America, particularly Brazil, the Amaryllis thrives in well-drained soil and requires bright, indirect sunlight. It is relatively easy to care for, needing moderate watering. After blooming, the foliage remains green, providing continued interest until the plant goes dormant.
