The 'Ice Queen' is a bulbous perennial with spectacular flowers. If you're looking for something special, check out this amaryllis. The elegant flowers on sturdy stems with their delicate colours are just what you're looking for! They are coloured white with a creamy cast which shimmers in good light. The throat of the flower is a yellow-green colour. The petals are narrow, oblong, with sharp tips and wavy edges, bent backwards (up to 20 in one flower). They are arranged in inflorescences, usually 4-7 flowers each (half of them open at once, the rest open 1-2 weeks later). The size of the flower is astonishing - over 20 cm in diameter! The flower stems are long, tubular. The leaves are glossy, strap-shaped, dark green. The bulb is fleshy, rounded and slightly elongated. It measures up to 10 cm in diameter. It produces one or two flower stalks. The plant is 30-50 cm tall. The flowering period is winter (6-10 weeks after planting). Order yourself a gorgeous bouquet! Agree, it is very interesting to watch the iridescent blossoms light up on a cold day.
P.S. Hippeastrum was first wrongly identified as Amaryllis Equestris by botanist Linnaeus. Linnaeus' error is the cause of worldwide confusion between 'Amaryllis' and 'Hippeastrum'.
