Notes
'Sweet Lilian' amaryllis (Hippeastrum 'Sweet Lilian') is a bulb for borders and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Its white flowers can open in spring, summer, or winter, and it tolerates drought. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Amaryl C.V. bred it.
Pairs well with Snake's head, Pansy, and Azalea.
