Amaryllis lily flowers are amazing! Large size, vibrant colours, showy flowers. There are many colours in flowers of lilly but all bulbs look the same. I had planted this bulb in a plastic tub and this started multiplying like hell! within few months I had many little bulbs and no doubt it did not flower then. I had to leave this bulb many times outside of the pot, just in case it continues to multiply. But since I have planted it in a mud pot it gives flowers every six months. This post is especially dedicated to the new growth of the blooms and how you can force flowers from bulb plants.
Special Tips that worked for my bulb plants: Keep it in a small pot. If you give it more space it will start multiplying and all the energy of the plant will go in developing leaves. It likes to be root bound.
Watering carefully is important. Less water, partially
shaded area but one that gets sunlight for some time. The soil for these bulbs must be dry and not mushy wet. They will rot with over watering.
The large leaves look beautiful but we must not encourage this growth too much. Other wise all energy goes in maintaining the plant with so many leaves. I have noticed that few leaves produce faster flowers.

The bulb of Amaryllis plant has given plenty
blooms and what a beauty to watch the new bud opening in the rainy season. This
is a very attractive flowering plant which is grown from bulbs.

The most important part-they get root rot, bulb rot, white aphids, fungus. You will see the underside of leaves with white fungus and aphids which need to be cleaned thoroughly with water and spray with hose pipe, water with some pressure to remove the pests. After this they need sunlight to grow fast and recover from pest attack.
Forcing blooms is a trick. You must not allow the plant to grow too much leaves. Allow it more sunlight and less watering. Trim rotted leaves immediately. If your bulb shows less leaves, but they are green, it will give larger flowers.
Hope this helps! Try it!
