Spider lilies are great for naturalizingSPIDER LILIES Spider Lily bulbs, also referred as hurricane lilies or cluster amaryllis are in the genus Lycoris, and the Amaryllidaceae family. There are thirteen to twenty species in the family. Spider lilies are native to Japan, Afghanistan, the eastern and southern parts of Asia and China, southern Korea, eastern Iran, as well as the northern parts of Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Myanmar, Nepal, and Pakistan. There are two other genus of flowers often called spider lilies, the Crinum and the Hymenocallis. Spider lilies are divided further into two groups depending on the flower’s stamen. In the subgenus Lycoris radiata, the blooms have stamens that are at least two times longer than the tepals. The subgenus L. sanguinea have shorter stamens only slightly longer than the tepals. Spider lily flower blooms can be orange, red, white, or yellow.
PINK SPIDER LILY Pink spider lilies are commonly called the Magic Lily, Naked Lady, Resurrection Lily or Pink Surprise Lily. This pink spider lily is an amaryllis. Its leaves are about three feet long and appears in the spring. In zone 7, the leaves are usually gone by the end of June. A month or so later, a sturdy stem will emerge from the ground with flower buds atop. The flowers and stem quickly grow larger and taller, reaching about two feet tall. It takes less than a week for the stem to emerge and flowers to be in full bloom. This spider lily is great for naturalizing flowers. |
