I bought 2
hippeastrum bulbs from Cameron highlands 8 years ago. Now I’m not only enjoying
gazing at its beautiful blooms but I’m being blessed by so many bulbs that i
can have 2 rows of it . Since then i have collected 7 variety of hippeastrum, but the only photo that i managed to capture is from this pink and red cultivar (Minerva if i'm not mistaken)

Nice photos. I have not tried growing them - - yet! Jack
ReplyDeleteThanks. You should try it, it is very easy to grow
ReplyDeleteVery Nice! may I have few bulbs from you. How much it cost?
ReplyDeleteI do not sell the bulb. I can give you a few red bulbs.
DeleteSaya pun tengah crazy collecting hippeastrum for my own collection. Beautiful flowers in your garden.
ReplyDeletebeli kat sg buloh, lebih murah dari Cameron Highland dan oversea.Masa i pergi europe hari tu harga dia 7 euro. Bulb bunga yg sama kat sini baru rm 15.
DeleteThanks for sharing. Sini kalau yang big and double bloom orang sanggup beli more than 50 dollars one bulb. Yang rare warna and type lagi harganya melambung. Mature flowering bulb RM15? Saya baru je tahu it takes about 2-3 years young bulb to flower.
ReplyDeleteI am more familiar with veggies rather than flower.
This year baru start ke arah bunga-bunga.
Tahu tak harga agaphanthus atau mature flowering tuberose bulb (harum sundal malam) di Sungai Buloh atau Cameron Highland.
Saya nak cuba bawa balik daylily tapi takut pula tak tahan lowland.
Harga agapanthus yg sedang berbunga rm 25 sepasu. Saya dah berapa Kali tanam tapi mati sbb nematod Suka mkn umbi dia, tak larat nak letak racun. Tuberous tu harga rm5 hingga rm 8 satu polibeg, kat sg buluh pun banyak. Amaryllis double flower bicolored Putih dan pink I beli rm 40, pelihara setahun dua, Bagi Baja secukupnya, jgn Biar dia berbunga sekejap je bulb tu beranak pinak.
ReplyDeleteOh jangan bagi berbunga ya.
DeleteBulb amaryillis berapa lama tahan kalau tak tanam dalam tanah ya. Saya angan-angan nak borong sikit bulbnya tapi kena simpan 6 weeks before dapat tanam. Rasa-rasanya selamat tak bulb tu?
Daylily hidup kat sini, I Ada satu pasu banyak dia beranak pinak Dah lapan tahun pelihara tapi tak pernah berbunga, dia nak cuaca sejuk Mcm Cameron highland / spring.
ReplyDeleteCuba korek satu bulb yang mature dan simpan dalam crisper fridge for several weeks to break dormancy. Sebab certain bulb kena ada pre-chilling baru nak cambah dan bunga. Macam winter ke spring. Kalau dekat kawasan tropical-subtropical Australia, Gardener yang teringin tanam bulb tulip atau adik-beradik daffodil selalunya diorang simpan dalam fridge for weeks pastu tanam masa musim yang cool weather bukan musim kemarau. Kalau pantai timur mungkin monsoonlah kut.
Deletenanti i try, daffodil tulip kena prechilling baru nak bercambah, daylily ni dah hidup pun tapi tak nak berbunga , dia tak ada bulb lebih kurang mcm serai rasanya susah nak prechilling ni, skrg ni thg musim hujan, suhu pun dah turun ke 27 C, duk tunngu juga kalau nak berbunga.
DeleteAmaryllis bulb tu tahan lama, 3 bulan pun ok lagi (paling lama i simpan, lebih lama lagi tak taulah ok ke tak.). anginkan dia biar betul2 kering. Asalkan tak kena jangkitan kulat dia ok je,
