Bulbs have arrived at Rose Bredl! Beautifully planted amaryllis and paperwhite bulbs make great hostess gifts for the holidays. Their fragrance and color are such a treat this time of year, and they require very little fussing once they’re planted.

PS- Here’s a tip we learned from a friend Nick: If you don’t want your paperwhite to grow too tall and topple over, change the plants regular water to a 5% alcohol solution once the plants is about 2″ high.  You’ll get a shorter plant but the flowers will be just as large (and just as delightful smelling!)
