Amaryllis – Quito

Amaryllis Quito is an exciting new exotic variety, named for the capital of Ecuador, the native home of many cybister type amaryllis. The slender, recurved cherry-red petals and long, extravagant flirty stamens are characteristic of the cybister or “spider amaryllis” forms. Lime-green highlights complete the look.

Water sparingly after planting (keep soil barely moist), and just slightly increase watering once you see new growth. Amaryllis like to stay on the dry side until they begin to flower.

These exotic amaryllis bulbs make great gifts for adventurous gardeners looking for something unusual.
