Growing 18 to 36 inches tall, Luna flowers within 8 to 12 days of planting, making it one of the quickest amaryllis to bloom. Hardy in zone 9, this jumbo cultivar is specifically bred for forcing indoors and delivers cheery winter blooms when most gardens have gone dormant.

Luna's cream petals blushed with apple-green at the base create a delicate, wintry aesthetic that feels both unexpected and refined. The bulbs reliably produce multiple flowering stems, and they bloom fast, rewarding impatient gardeners with flowers in just over a week. Most bulbs won't flower until after the winter holidays, making Luna a natural fit for late-season forcing when you want something special for the new year. Amaryllis are among the easiest bulbs to force indoors, and Luna executes this role with dramatic scale and color.
Luna is grown as a forced indoor flowering bulb, prized for bringing dramatic blooms to winter windowsills and indoor displays during the coldest months of the year. The tall, multi-stemmed flower arrangement makes it excellent as a cut flower for fresh arrangements.
