Description
10" tall x 3" wide. The slender, dark green, grass-like foliage of this summer bloomer is topped with flowers for several weeks in mid summer. Rain Lilies are deer-resistant blubs that prefer moist but well-drained soils in full to partial sun. Though they're perennial in southern gardening zones, gardeners living in regions with cold winters should treat this bulb as an annual, growing it in a container instead of in the ground. Rain Lilies are easy to overwinter by lifting the bulbs and storing them for the winter, or by dragging the pot into a garage just before frost arrives. Also known as fairy lilies, these natives of the New World naturalize easily in the southern U.S., but they're a delightful mid-summer surprise for gardeners everywhere.
