Late this past summer my uncle gave me a big container of amaryllis, which were starts from bulbs passed down from my grandmother. The original bulbs belonged to my great grand aunt Venie, she passed away in 1943 at the age of 77. My uncle passed last month, but he kept the containers outside during the summer and brought inside during winter as a house plant. He said his mother would sometimes store the bare bulbs in the root cellar over winter. I know these bulbs are probably not the same as can be purchased now and was wondering if the care is the same as modern bulbs. I've been entrusted with the care of these legacy bulbs and want them to thrive! They are blooming now and are a beautiful coral color.
