I have a four year old amaryllis bulb which has never flowered, every

no difference. Help.
I don't know much about these but I think the re-potting could be the
problem. They seem to do best when their roots are restricted. We have one
here that was a present about 4 or 5 years ago and it has never been
re-potted and is practically bursting the pot it's in. It flowers
extravagantly once a year and slightly less so a second time. Certainly,
I've always been told that they like to be 'cosy' in their pots!
