With its peony-shaped blooms, Amaryllis 'Sweet Nymph' (Hippeastrum) will surely draw the attention of all with its watermelon-pink flowers adorned with darker veining and white highlights, up to 8 in. across (20 cm). Borne in clusters of three or four, they sit with majesty atop a stout leafless stalk. Elegantly rising up to 22-24 in. (55-60 cm), each bulb produces 3-4 flowers per stem and blooms 6-10 weeks after planting.
