Amaryllis 'Papilio'

There’s something almost orchid-like about Amaryllis'Papilio' (or Hippeastrum papilio) and its large exotic-looking blooms. Multiple flowers are produced per stem and, typically of butterfly amaryllis, multiple stems are produced per bulb. The overall display when this Hippeastrum is in full swing is spectacular, and the pale green petals which are complemented by streaks of deep burgundy look chic in any setting. This is a bulb to grow as a houseplant and enjoy as it establishes over several years, either as a highlight in an exotic indoor jungle or as a standalone centrepiece.
