Description

Fresh green accents make this tropical beauty stand out

Exotic double blooms are white with a light green shading.
Even among tropical plants, this lush, fully double amaryllis stands out. Layers of velvety white petals are touched lightly with a fresh green hue, giving Marilyn the unique colouration for which it is known. Native to the South American rainforests, amaryllis make the perfect indoor winter bloom to brighten up the shorter, darker days. These 8½" flowers appear 6-8 weeks after planting, and can be grown year after year with proper care.
