Lycoris caldwellii

Lycoris caldwellii

I've always loved the common name of these, surprise lily. Sums up nicely the way the thick flowering stems pop up out of no where from the previously dormant plants in the late summer to explode in bloom before the leaves arrive. This one has pale yellow flowers that fade to cream and off white as they age. This species is a sterile triploid, and thought to be a natural hybrid. For full hardiness, plant early so they can get established before winter. Zone 5

Gorgeous extra hardy selection that Jim Waddick collected in China, incredible intense spidery red flowers produced in abundance in the late summer before the leaves emerge. Check out the Pacific Bulb Society website for some truly stunning images of literally millions of these forming solid sheets of red in a park in Japan. I want to recreate that now. Zone 5
