'Mount Blanc' amaryllis (Hippeastrum 'Mount Blanc') is a bulb for containers, indoor winter bloom, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry soil. Its pure white flowers have bright green throats and rise on stems that reach 12 to 24 inches. Each jumbo bulb sends up 2 to 3 flowering stems, and it blooms indoors in January and February.
