- Big Bulbs, Bigger Flowers: Bulbs sized at 26/28 cm or more produce massive blooms, often 8-10 inches in diameter.
- Towering Stems: Symphony varieties reach heights of 10-20 inches, making them a centerpiece for any room.
- Multiple Stems, More Blooms: Many Symphony Amaryllis produce two or three stems, each with 4-6 blossoms.

Sonatini Amaryllis: Compact Charm for Every Space
Think of Sonatini as the Symphony’s sweet, petite sibling. These varieties deliver:
- Smaller Bulbs, Big Impact: Bulbs sized 18/20 to 22/24 cm produce blooms 4-6 inches wide, perfect for tight spaces.
- Shorter Stems: At just 12-18 inches tall, Sonatini Amaryllis are ideal for tabletops, windowsills, and gardens.
- Versatile Appeal: While they shine indoors, Sonatini varieties thrive outdoors in mild climates, making them perfect for garden planting.
Our Sonatini Showstopper:
- Dragonfly: Graceful and unique, this variety features delicate 4-6 inch blooms atop 18-24 inch stems. Its compact form makes it perfect for indoor decor or holiday gifting.
Sonata Amaryllis: The Best of Both Worlds
For those who can’t decide, Sonata Amaryllis strikes a beautiful balance between Symphony’s grandeur and Sonatini’s compact charm. With mid-sized bulbs, moderate stem height, and flowers that are just the right size, Sonatas are versatile and easy to grow.
How to Choose Your Perfect Amaryllis
So, how do you decide? Consider these factors:
- Space: If you have room for towering blooms, Symphony is your best bet. For smaller spaces, go for Sonatini.
- Purpose: Looking for a bold holiday statement? Symphony varieties steal the show. Want something understated for year-round enjoyment? Sonatini delivers.
- Maintenance: All Amaryllis varieties are easy to grow, but Sonatini’s compact size makes them especially low-maintenance for busy gardeners.
