Bring rich, cheerful color to winter days with the pre-potted Bingo Amaryllis. This variety opens large, velvety red flowers on sturdy green stems and arrives already planted, so there’s no setup—just place it, water lightly, and enjoy. It’s an easy, gift-ready way to brighten mantels, tables, and windowsills during the holidays.

Bingo performs reliably indoors in bright, indirect light at typical room temperatures. Most kits bloom about six to eight weeks after arrival, and each display lasts for weeks. Set the pot where you’ll see it often, water when the top inch of mix is dry, and rotate the container every few days so the stalk grows straight. Moving the plant slightly cooler once buds start to open can extend the bloom time.

What’s Inside

• One pre-potted Bingo amaryllis bulb with growing medium

• Decorative pot or sleeve (varies by kit)

• Simple care instructions

Planting is already done for you, so the first step is placement. Choose a bright spot out of harsh direct sun and aim for 65–75°F. Begin with very light watering; overwatering is the most common cause of bulb rot. As the stem elongates, keep the mix slightly moist but never soggy, and avoid letting water collect in a cachepot. A small stake can be added if the stalk needs support.

After flowering, remove the spent flower stalk but keep the leaves to recharge the bulb. Continue watering when the top inch is dry and feed every two to three weeks with a balanced liquid fertilizer while foliage is green. If you want a repeat performance next winter, provide a rest period in late fall by reducing water and storing the bulb in a cool, dark place for eight to ten weeks before returning it to bright light and resuming normal care.

This is a natural product, so bulb size and timing vary with the environment. For indoor display; keep away from heat vents and harsh, direct sun. Amaryllis is toxic if ingested, so place out of reach of pets and small children.

FAQs

What makes Bingo different from other amaryllis?

Bingo is selected for its saturated, classic red flowers and strong stems, giving a bold holiday look with very little effort. Because it is pre-potted, you can start enjoying growth immediately without planting.

How much light and water does it need?

Bright, indirect light is ideal. Water only when the top inch of the potting mix feels dry, starting sparingly and increasing slightly as the stem grows. Keep the mix evenly moist but never wet.

When will it bloom, and how long will the flowers last?

The typical window is six to eight weeks from arrival, depending on temperature and light. Once open, flowers generally last two to three weeks, and a slightly cooler location can help extend the show.

Can I keep the bulb to rebloom next year?

Yes. After flowering, remove the spent stalk and grow the leaves in bright light, watering when the top inch is dry and feeding regularly. In late fall, rest the bulb in a cool, dark place for eight to ten weeks, then bring it back to bright light to start a new bloom cycle.

Do I need to fertilize this season?

Fertilizer isn’t necessary for the first bloom because the bulb stores ample energy. If you plan to keep the bulb, begin feeding every two to three weeks after flowering while the foliage is actively growing.
