Over-Worked Amaryllis


Question: We give our amaryllis plant food dissolved in water every other week and it has bloomed three times in ten months. But, the leaves are 42 inches long and so floppy we have to tie them up. What is wrong with them? JJ, Mich.

Answer: Your amaryllis is unusual in flowering so often within the year. You can hardly expect it to keep up that unusual rate of flowering. The long, soft leaves may be due to overfeeding or poor light.
