Jill, the web pages contain a lot of good information. Thank you for sharing!
Gita, I like getting things all ready for winter so I won't have to deal with potting soil later. I normally pot up the amaryllis bulbs around this time of year, trim the leaves, and stop watering them. They will go dormant in a few weeks.
The problem with this approach is that the pots take up quite a lot of storage space if you have... well, I will not mention how many pots of them I have. Here are only a small portion of them.
I think I will do it Jill's way next year. Keep them in a box and only pot them up when they show signs of growth.
