Steven,

That is a spectacular pics of them..... I am 
jealous as all heck.  I grow a bunch of different 
rainlilies, yet grandiflora died out for me (I've 
not yet retried it).  The other one that has 
never done well for me (this one with repeated 
attempts) is Zephyranthes candida..... I know 
people near me who grow it like weeds, but it 
doesn't like me at all.  Go figure!!!!!?

Cheers.
