Notes
'Temptation' amaryllis (Hippeastrum 'Temptation') is a bulb for borders, containers, and low maintenance gardens. 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 rise on plants 12 to 24 inches tall. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Once settled in, it is also drought tolerant.
Pairs well with Pansy, Lemongrass, and Azalea.
