potting up Hippeastrum bulb

It is spring here and it is all go. Have bought a Hippeastrum Red
Nymph. The bulb is bare rooted, getting a bud, just the beginnings of
the tipof the bud is showing.

I don't want to plant this one in the garden. I have a large shallow
terracotta planter. Could I use that for it? As I don't usually grow
things inpots, this will be a first. And what sort of mix? Pumice?
Orchid mix? Potting mix?
