Hippeastrum (Galaxy Group) 'Adele'

#repotted 10.12.17

Question for you please? Mine was never in a *cold snap* - it hasn't begun to show ANY signs of growth. Everyone else has beautiful new growth and flower stalks! How bad did I mess up?!? Do I repot? Do I shove her in the refrigerator for a few weeks? Or do I give up?

@KariSamuel some of mine were in bathroom window all summer. I don't think they want a cold period rather a rest and store energy from the sun in summer. Cut back the top and cut off last year's roots so it looks like a bulb you would buy new now. Repot in fresh houseplant/indoor compost & put in a position with good light. One of mine was flowering when I bought it March 2016 & was one of the latest to flower earlier this year. Don't give up on yours yet! Don't overwater but don't let dry out.

Brilliant! Will do! Great #advice! 😚

@Puddings_pies please see above. I probably should feed with a weak tomato feed but usually forget.
