Ameryllis - early flowering ??

My ameryllis started to flower about a week and a half ago, even after flowering this past march. I thought they were supposed to flower anywhere between december and march. Has anyone else had this happen

 

Drying them out, clipping the foliage off and storing them in a dormant condition is done to cause them to bloom at a particular time (often around Christmas). Kept watered and fertilized they may remain evergreen and bloom at other times. I've seen a pot with multiple bulbs and flower stalks growing in a sitting room in BC, that probably started as one bulb.

 

ya we've had it for around 10 years and we dont do anything special for it, beside move it once in a while. Its only grown one extra bulb in all that time.

Thanks for the fast relpy

 

Try fertilizing it.

 

actually, thats what ive been doing latley. Using 20 20 20 all purpose fertilizer.

 

Probably don't need such a big payload.

 

I dilute it, probably a quarter of the strenth for my indoor plants
