I have worked with A.D.R. Bulbs for almost 5 years now, and my company has sourced bulbs with them for longer than that. Communication is great - from ordering, to deliveries, to follow-ups on final product. I love the quality of the product as well as the service. We plant nearly 100,000 bulbs and A.D.R. keeps the whole process easy for us!

Amaryllis Dutch 'Mount Everest'

Amaryllis

Amaryllis ‘Mount Everest’ delivers pristine white 6–8 inch blooms with a clean, modern look that brightens containers, borders, and indoor displays. Sturdy 18–24 inch stems rise from 26/28 bulbs, each producing multiple stalks for a full, refined presentation.

As a Dutch field‑grown amaryllis, ‘Mount Everest’ is harvested later and stores well into fall, making it ideal for spring programs. While it does not flower for Christmas, it performs beautifully as a spring‑blooming garden amaryllis. In USDA Zones 9–11, it can be planted outdoors and treated as a perennial. In Zone 8, bulbs can be grown outdoors with winter protection or lifted before frost.

Expect flowering 8–12 weeks after planting, with reliable performance for southern landscapes and cut‑flower growers.

Growing and Maintenance Tips for Amaryllis Dutch 'Mount Everest'

Planting: Outdoors, plant in spring once soil warms in Zones 9–11 (Zone 8 with protection). Indoors, pot in late winter to spring for natural late‑spring to early‑summer blooms; not suitable for Christmas forcing.
Location: Choose a bright spot with morning sun and afternoon shade; outdoors, use a warm, protected area with good air circulation.
Depth: Set bulbs so the top one‑third to one‑half remains above the soil line to prevent rot.
Soil: Use a well‑draining mix such as amended garden soil or quality potting mix; ideal pH 6.0–7.0.
Watering: Water lightly after planting; once growth begins, keep soil evenly moist but never waterlogged, allowing the top inch to dry slightly.
Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2–4 weeks during active growth.
Support: Stake tall stems if needed, especially outdoors in windy areas.
Outdoor: In Zones 9–11, bulbs can stay in the ground year‑round and bloom in spring; in Zone 8, mulch heavily or lift before frost.
Post‑Bloom: Remove spent flowers but keep foliage to recharge the bulb for the next season.
Dormancy: After foliage yellows, reduce watering and store bulbs cool and dry for 8–12 weeks before replanting.
