Martha,
You can grow your bulbs as an evergreen houseplants, but they need good light and regular feeding. They'll go into their own cycle for blooming. Most will bloom in the spring if they grow all year. Some will surprise you with an autumn bloom.

Have a question, I told you in the last post I had a new leaf standing straight and tall, put it in the picture window so it could get some sun, came back it is laying down like the rest of them, can someone tell me why?

It's likely not getting the right kind of or enough light. Under good conditions the leaves should be strong, green, and standing on their own. I'm afraid that until they can get outside into some good light, you will be fighting this. Even my bulbs in my greenhouse window aren't doing near as well as those in the greenhouse outside. It's a balance and a learning experience.

Put them out when the freeze has passed and you'll see them take off.

Thank you Kristi.

Until the freeze has passed, could I keep them in the picture window? Also, do you happen to know when the last freeze in our area will be?

I would move them away from the window at night to keep them warmer. I am in zone 9., so I don't know anything about zone 6, except it's colder than zone 9!!

Your best bet is just to watch the weather. If you warm up, set them out in pots. If it's forecast to freeze, bring them in. You'll just need to look at the forecast. This winter has had crazy weather. I wouldn't go by anything being the typical date of a last freeze. Mother Nature is out to prove all the projections wrong!

To say that this winter has been crazy is a understatement, in the 20's and 30's one day and the 60's the next. No wonder people get sick so easy. I moved the amaryllis back to the computer desk, it is warmer than the window, I will check and see what the weather is for tomorrow and take it from there.

I engineered a home made way to try to keep the leaves from breaking off, I took two pieces of tape and taped the cloth tie from slipping down the dowel rods,

I thought of putting this contraption in the picture window, it has been sunny for the past few days and the sun coming in the window is warm. Would it hurt or help the plant?

The leaf you see with the brown top, could I just cut that one leaf off, will that hurt the plant any?

I have had both of the Amaryllis plants in the window for quite awhile, and they are doing fine, the plant that has just one leaf is growing 2 more! I put some new soil on it like they say to do, I guess it is happy there, will take a picture when they get bigger.:)

Martha,
When do you think you'll move them outside? Could you plant them in the ground to allow them to do their best over the summer, and then dig them up and start all over again in the fall?
