Title: Zephyranthes
Post by: petershaw on September 02, 2022, 07:47:41 AM
I know these are not uncommon and a bit weedy but they sure look great this time of year.

Not sure which species this is...

Looks like Zephyranthes candida, though a few of the hybrids look very similar.
It's a very adaptable species - I've flowered it in Melbourne, in Redesdale (Mediterranean-like climate) and have seen it flowering profusely in Goa, India which is definitely tropical!

Does what I have as Zephyranthes candida look a little different?
