	Hippeastrum blumenavia
		Then there is its uniqueness among the entire Hippeastrum clan and its continuing bewilderment to the botanical and taxonomic community.
		It's hard to imagine anything more beautiful than a potful of this dainty amaryllid blooming away during its late spring flowering period-the month of May for me. The flowers are pink to rosy pink on a white background with distinctive rosy pink veining.
		Seeds from my plants have been known to die within three to five days-depending on whether or not we're having a hot spell if they are not able to absorb water once they drop from the parent.

	Floridata: Hippeastrum hybrids
		The spectacular "amaryllis" bulbs that are forced into bloom by the thousands every year are actually hybrids of the dozens of species of the genus Hippeastrum While the belladonna lily (Amaryllis belladonna) is the true amaryllis, Floridata will use "amaryllis" as a common name when referring the Hippeastrums.
		There are more than 50 species of Hippeastrum that bloom white, pink, red or orange, sometimes striped or frilled and these have been hybridized into a host of shapes, colors and sizes.
		The Dutch have hybridized the Hippeastrum species extensively so there are now scores of sizes, colors and patterns to choose from.

		I roughly estimate their surfacial water "up"take to be only between 5 and 10 vol% - while the water binding capacity of coco peat substrate is 40% or better (I evaluated this myself) which makes my differential observations above (6 vs. 4 days) plausible.
		The hippeastrum seedlings growing in coco peat "with" this drainage layer below simply grow much better (faster) which is plausible, too, because they get more air from below!

		I consider that a waste; I repot when side bulbs reach the size where they can be potted on their own.
		After the bulb blooms, continue to care for a potted Hippeastrum, watering and feeding it until it chooses to go dormant (which might not happen).
		Hippeastrum can be divided almost any time of the year (except when the soil is soggy), but it is best done right at the end of a bloom period.
