Belladonna Amaryllis sends up tall, leafless stems topped with clusters of rosy pink, sweetly fragrant trumpet flowers in late summer and early fall, when most of the garden is winding down. Straplike green foliage fills in around the flowers for a tidy, tropical look at about 20 inches tall.
Unlike the big holiday amaryllis sold in boxes, this one is a true perennial bulb, hardy outdoors in USDA zones 5 through 9. Plant the bulbs in pots indoors for an easy first show, then move them to the garden the following fall, or set them straight into a sunny bed when they arrive and wait for the late-season display. Either way, container growing makes them a great fit for patios, porches, and small-space gardens.
Plant a few this season and let late summer arrive with color already waiting.
