Amaryllis 'Evergreen'
A truly extraordinary and highly sought-after variety, 'Evergreen' is the ultimate Amaryllis for lovers of the unique and unconventional. It is a stunning Cybister type, prized for its exotic, orchid-like flowers that are a startling and beautiful shade of cool, zesty lime-green. The slender, elegantly tapered petals sweep back gracefully, creating a spidery, dynamic form that is incredibly chic and modern. A subtle flush of white or cream often highlights the centre of the bloom, adding depth and a luminous quality to the fresh green colouring. 'Evergreen' is a floral masterpiece that feels both organic and otherworldly at the same time. It provides a cool, refreshing, and incredibly sophisticated alternative to the traditional warm tones of festive flowers, making it a spectacular choice for contemporary interior design and a guaranteed conversation starter.
