Amaryllis
The blooms on my amaryllis have faded. What do I do now to promote re-blooming?

Maybe give some free advice about: Plants and Gardens?
start by pinching the old blooms-this triggers hormones that tell the plant the it is time to grow more in order to make seeds. Check your soil and light requirements and what soil the plant is actually in. It may be that the soil mix needs tinkering with or that there is no more nutrients in the soil. Also check to see if the pant is rootbound (has outgronw the pot). If so, pot up into a lager container-use something that has a hole in the bottom and fertilize, fertilize, fertilize.

Fill somethin up half with water, then put 1/4 cup of dishsoap in it, and then fill tha rest up with beer..Its amazing for plants!

[Just guessing here] Maybe pruning it and making sure it is protected during the winter [from frost]. Try <a href="[Link](Mouse over link to see full location); BBCi's Gardener's World</a> for more advice.
