So I finally took a picture or more of the amaryllis that was drowning. It's Red Lion, one that I got last year at a basic store rather than a nursery. If I weren't in a hurry I'd look at what it did last year. I bet a few of y'all might remember that there was one I bought that was a 'not-white white'.

So I took Red Lion out of the pot (!) to let it dry. Roots look good.
Question: Should I trim them?

It has a baby. 👶 The baby has good roots and feels like it's gonna separate from the mom. One picture compares its size to a large clove of garlic. Question: Should I help it separate from its mom?

Here's the pictures. Have a couple of questions about the leaves but will ask later.

Should I use some coir or coconut fiber in the pot if the baby is ready to leave home?

Appreciate any answers.
