How does a waxed amaryllis bulb grow without soil or water?

The wax seals the bulb and holds its stored moisture and nutrients. The bulb uses that reserve to push up a flower stalk and bloom, so you never water it or pot it.

What do I do once it finishes blooming?

The bulb is spent after its bloom. Most people compost it; it is not designed to be unwaxed and replanted.

Where should I put it?

A bright spot on a desk or tabletop, out of direct hot sun. Good light keeps the stalk sturdy and the flowers full.

Will the stalk need support?

Sometimes. Amaryllis stalks can lean as the flowers open, so a small stake or a turn toward the light helps keep it upright.

Yes for someone who wants a flower without upkeep. It is a one-time bloom, so it suits a seasonal gift rather than a long-term houseplant.

Our take on the Waxed Amaryllis Bulb with Succulent Accent 34/36

A waxed amaryllis bulb with a succulent accent, made for a desk or tabletop. The wax coating seals in moisture, so the bulb needs no soil and no watering; it sends up a flower stalk and blooms indoors in a few weeks. It suits people who want a low-effort winter flower or a small gift. Against a potted amaryllis, it trades repotting and repeat blooming for near-zero care, and the bulb is spent after its bloom.
