Q.The Leaves On Both The Amaryllis And Hyacinth Were Cut Off Before Turning Yellow, What Now?

Zone Tucson, Az | pmi5927 added on February 7, 2021 | Answered

I’ll be gone all summer. With the being cut off right after blooming I’m not sure what to do to save these amaryllis and Hyacinth bulbs for hopefully blooming next December/January.

Unfortunately, this may stunt flowering for 1 or 2 years. At this point, there isn't a whole lot that can be done, other than to let it enter dormancy. This may require a little help from you. Here are some articles that will help:
