I have had this for almost 10 years from Telos and don't ever recall a flower. It is supposed to be summer dry and active Au-W-Sp, unlike many other rainlilies. This past winter i repotted it in pumice and kept it inside under lights on a bed of wet gravel with no direct watering. A week ago i saw some shoots through the pumice so i gave it some fresh rainwater. Blooms at last!
