In your climate, I think even if I put them under the deck I would put hay bales around them for insulation...and I would use big sized pots --14 inch across and 12 inches deep for starters... I planted the bulbs in late October and November when they came into the stores (Home Depot). Herbie---this is the first year I planted the bulbs in pots, so I am no expert for sure. I went by 'trial and error', so I wish you good luck! t. these are some amaryllis we planted in pots... |
