Amaryllis in Florida

Question

I want to separate my amaryllis bulbs and replant them in the spring. The leaves never die down (even in Nov). When can I dig them up so they can rest? They have been in the ground about 4-5 years now and some have 3 big bulbs and some haven’t grown at all, and a lot did not bloom this last spring.

Answer 1

You can dig them up at the beginning of fall. Clean them off, separate them and then store in a cool dry place for a few months. Then replant and they should come back beautifully.
