This was a wax covered Amaryllis bulb that I purchased late Nov/early Dec 2022. Originally the bulb produced one stalk and four trumpet flowers. When the flowers and stalk died back I removed the wax and placed the bulb into a loose dirt mix, almost like the consistency of coffee, into a large soup take out container. (The tall translucent ones.) The bulb last year produced two more stalks with huge flowers after I did that. He was outside all summer and I brought it in doors sometime in November into my basement with no windows. I can’t really say he died back. By Christmas I brought him and and another 2 bulbs to the living room. I’m a late bloomer. They’re late bloomers. Who really cares.😁
