Variety traits

Hippeastrum flower color

Hippeastrum Herb.

The flower color of Hippeastrum is a key morphological trait for cultivar evaluation. It is determined by descriptive characteristics, including the primary tone, petal pattern, and color intensity.

In the reference 46 varieties crop Amaryllis, where this is mentioned in the description.

The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) color charts and instrumental colorimetry methods are used to evaluate Hippeastrum color. Observations are conducted under daylight, covering the outer and inner sides of the petals, as well as color dynamics during the flowering period.

The trait is qualitative in nature, described by the presence of contrasting elements such as a 'star' in the throat, streaks, or edging. Shade saturation can be influenced by growing conditions, particularly soil acidity, and the first flowering after purchase may not fully correspond to varietal characteristics due to plant stress.
