Description
Hippeastrum 'Double Record', also known as amaryllis, has a spectacular flowering period from December to March.
Its flowers are star-shaped, with long, narrow petals measuring 10cm (4in). The flowers are double, with white petals edged in red. At the centre of the flower, there are long stamens that sometimes extend beyond the petals. It bears 4 to 6 flowers perched on sturdy stems.
Amaryllis 'Double Record' develops its foliage after flowering. This indoor bulb can reach a height of 50cm (20in). Cultivate it in a pot. You can also place it against a well-exposed wall in your garden, sheltered from cold winds, bearing in mind that the amaryllis cannot tolerate frost. When cut, the flowers make beautiful bouquets.

Planting and care
Hippeastrum 'Double Record' thrives in full sun or partial shade in any moist soil. Indoors, place it in bright light. For pot cultivation, leave 2cm (1in) around the bulb and use a heavy pot to prevent it from tipping under the weight of the amaryllis, which tends to lean towards the sun. Use light, well-drained soil, either neutral or slightly acidic. In a pot, leave half of the bulb above the ground to prevent the neck from getting wet during watering and rotting (this also provides more space for the soil). Plant your amaryllis bulbs from October to March, depending on the desired flowering period, keeping in mind that it takes 2 months between planting and flowering. After flowering, cut the flowers and let the foliage grow. At the end of summer, allow the soil to dry out and cut off the dry leaves. Replant the bulb 6 weeks later in fresh soil.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
