Bring dramatic, long‑lasting flowers into your home or garden with this premium bulb from Marde Ross & Company. Sourced and refrigerated for freshness, the Marquise Double White delivers bold, double‑layered white flowers—typically 4–8 blooms—from a single 28–30 cm bulb. It’s suitable for forcing in a pot indoors or planting in well‑drained soil outdoors where winters are mild (USDA zones 9–11).

How quickly will I see flowers after planting the bulb?

Expect blooms in roughly 6–10 weeks after planting when conditions are favorable. Timing varies with temperature, light, and watering—warmer, brighter environments speed development.

• Typical bloom window: 6–10 weeks post‑planting.
• Requires bright, indirect light for fastest bloom.
• Warmer room temperatures shorten time to flower.
• Refrigerated bulbs arrive primed for reliable germination.

What growing conditions does the Marquise Double White prefer?

This amaryllis likes well‑drained soil and bright, indirect light; water sparingly until shoots emerge and more regularly while flowering. For outdoor planting, choose sheltered spots in zones 9–11 to avoid frost damage.

• Soil: well‑draining potting mix or garden soil.
• Light: bright, indirect indoors; partial sun outdoors in warmer climates.
• Water: keep slightly moist during growth, reduce after bloom.
• Temperature: ideal indoors or outdoors in zones 9–11.

How many blooms and what size can I expect from a single bulb?

A single Marquise Double White bulb typically produces 4–8 layered flowers, each sitting on sturdy stems that reach about 16–24 inches tall. The double blooms create a fuller, textured look compared with single‑petaled varieties.

• Bulb size: 28–30 cm bare‑root for robust flowering.
• Bloom count: usually 4–8 double flowers per bulb.
• Height: stems typically 16–24" at maturity.
• Visual effect: luminous white, layered petals for an elegant display.

Can this amaryllis support wildlife or seasonal décor needs?

Yes—its nectar can attract hummingbirds in warm climates, and the large white flowers make the Marquise Double White a striking seasonal focal point for holiday or spring arrangements. It’s also low‑maintenance compared with many potted flowering plants.

• Wildlife: nectar may attract hummingbirds in mild regions.
• Decor: dramatic white blooms suit seasonal centerpieces and events.
• Care: untreated, high‑quality bulb stored refrigerated for vigor.
• Versatility: excellent for forcing indoors or outdoor massing in warm zones.

Who is this for?
