We love the selection of bulbs available from A.D.R. The variety is great, the quality is excellent and the price is fair. However, the best part of working with A.D.R is the customer service from Chris, Walter and all of the team. They go out of their way to make sure ours needs are met.

Amaryllis ‘Alaska’ reaches 16 to 20 inches tall, producing large, crisp white blooms with a cool, icy sheen that gives the variety its name. The flowers are broad‑petaled, smooth, and evenly shaped, creating a clean, modern presentation ideal for winter décor. Each bulb sends up two to three sturdy stalks, each carrying three to four showy blossoms. Blooming begins about 45–50 days after planting, making ‘Alaska’ a reliable, high‑impact choice for holiday and early‑winter retail programs.
