Contrary to common practice with other perennial plants and bulbs, do not repot amaryllis annually. They produce their best and largest blooms when severely pot-bound. In time, older bulbs will produce offsets. These can be removed and planted in small pots and grown until they reach flowering size. The old bulb can be repotted and grown on.
