PLANT PORN: AMARYLLIS

These thicc beauties are classic Christmas decor at its finest. You're probably familiar with amaryllis from your nan's front room (alongside the poinsettia and obligatory weird nativity scene), but they're making a come back and we're here for it. Coming to life as all your other houseplants go to sleep, they are the perfect antidote to the dormant cheese plant blues, and planted now should have a nice showy flower just in time for your visit from St Nick. 

RATING

Easy as. Their big juicy bulbs don't ask for much, just a cosy place to sit and some sunlight (same babes, same) 

WE LOVE

Pillar box red is the classic, but keep an eye out for deep purples or soft peach tones for something a bit different.
