    I have several amaryllis bulbs which flowered a couple of years ago. I tried to save them to bloom again but last year only got leaves and the same this time. I know what I did wrong as in aftercare but is there any chance these would ever flower or should I throw them away and start again next year?

    They should re flower every year if you treat them properly after flowering.
    Depending on pot size ATM, repot after flowering, into a pot 1in bigger all round, and feed right through the summer with high potash feed, like tomato feed.
    Keep the plants in a sunny position and dry it off towards the end of summer, when the leaves die you can pull or cut them off.

    You then need to keep the bulb in its pot in a cool position for a few months before starting to water and warm it up at the time you want it to flower.

    Yes yours will flower but the bulbs need to be built up again.
