Amaryllis (Hippeastrum) wax bulb

The Amaryllis (scientific name Hippeastrum) is a popular ornamental plant known for its large, trumpet-shaped blooms. This specifically shows a wax-coated bulb, a popular gift item where the bulb contains enough water and nutrients to bloom without soil or additional watering.

Originally native to the tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas, the modern commercial production of Amaryllis bulbs is centered in the Netherlands (Holland), which remains the primary global hub for flower bulb cultivation and export. Other significant production regions include South Africa and Brazil. Because the image features a generic plant without a visible retail brand, it is categorized as a general horticultural product. These are typically sold under various local distributor brands or as unbranded items in florists and supermarkets throughout the European market.
