CARMEN is a perennial bulbous flower from the amaryllis family, which attracts attention with its large, velvety dark red flowers with a rich raspberry nuance. The plant reaches a height of 50–60 cm and develops tall, thickened floral stalks about 10 cm long, on which four to five elegant petals are arranged. The flower shape is flat and neat, with slight horn-like protrusions at the base, and upon full opening, they take on a triangular-oval shape.
CARMEN leaves have a strap-like structure and are not wide, which emphasizes the plant's elegance. The bulbs are large – up to 10 cm in diameter – and can release one to three floral stalks, ensuring lush and prolonged flowering from April to December. The flowers exude an excellent aroma, making them ideal for decorating gardens and rooms.
For successful cultivation, CARMEN requires bright diffused lighting, moderate temperature of 17–25 °C, and light, hygroscopic soil. The plant prefers moderate moisture and can be reproduced both by dividing the bulb and by seeds. With proper care, it remains healthy and continues to delight with its magnificent flowers throughout the season.
