Coral Beach Amaryllis (Hippeastrum ' Coral Beach ®', Single Flowering Amaryllis). New! This hippeastrum appeared around 2015. It was originally sold by White Flower Farm in the USA and by Fluwel in Europe. This fabulously beautiful flower was developed by the 'amaryllis master' Bram van Staalduinen. This variety closely resembles the amaryllis 'Stardust' and with some characteristics from the amaryllis 'Picotee'. It is multi-coloured. A unique play of coral and pearly white flowers! On a white background, the upper two thirds of the flower are covered with a red blush. It looks as if they have been brushed and covered in coral tones. The perianth leaflets (petals) have a rather thick and irregular edge in red, which makes them bolder and very artistic on all sides. The flowers are six-petalled, rounded, measuring about 17 cm. The plant is 40-50 cm tall. Flowering time: 6-8 weeks after planting. This beauty will undoubtedly become a favourite!
New Year's Day lilies - often called amaryllis - can be grown not only at home but also in the office. And they will immediately become an indispensable feature in the interior. They are especially good in combination with Christmas accessories such as conifer branches, Christmas balls and decorative ribbons. Here are four of the best varieties with terry flowers. For best results, plant three bulbs in a single container. In addition, an amaryllis or hippeastrum makes a nice gift for your family and friends. Remember that this plant should only be transplanted every three or four years as it does not like to be disturbed too much. During the growing season, the plant should be fertilised by alternating organic and mineral fertilisers. The frequency of fertilisation should be once every fortnight.
Plants which are usually called amaryllis are actually part of the genus Hippeastrum. And the genus Hippeastrum consists of over 50 species of bulbous plants. The genus Amaryllis, on the other hand, contains only one species, Amaryllis belladonna (commonly known as Belladonna lilies). Amaryllis belladonna and hippeastrum are plants very similar in appearance. They produce showy, funnel-shaped flowers and green, strap-shaped leaves. But in Amaryllis belladonna the stems are dense (as opposed to hollow in the hippeastrum) and the leaves appear after flowering. Another difference is that Amaryllis blooms in autumn and Hippeastrums bloom in winter-spring.
The botanist Linnaeus first mistakenly identified the Hippeastrum as "Amaryllis Equestris". This mistake is still the cause of worldwide confusion between "Amaryllis" and "Hippeastrum". The plant is therefore sometimes called by a double name, Amaryllis-Hippeastrum, or by a single name, Amaryllis.

Guide and tips for planting amaryllis(hippeastrum) bulbs
- Choose a pot that is at least 4 cm wider than the bulb and has drainage holes in the bottom.
- Fill the pot with well-draining soil, leaving about 2 cm of space at the top.
- Place the bulb in the center of the pot, with the pointed end facing up.
- Cover the bulb with soil, leaving the top one-third of the bulb exposed.
- Water the soil until it is evenly moist, but not waterlogged.
- Place the pot in a warm, bright location with indirect sunlight.
- Water the plant only when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch.
- As the plant grows, support the stalk with a stake to prevent it from bending or breaking.
- After the flowers have faded, cut the stem off at the base and continue to care for the plant by watering it regularly and providing it with bright, indirect sunlight.
