Here's an image from Dave Lehmiller of xCoobranthus coryi. We have grown this since 2002, when it was shared by Thad Howard. It has no resemblance to any of the Labuffa hybrids.

From: pbs <pbs-bounces@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net> On Behalf Of Michael Kent Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2018 11:05 AM To: post to list <pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net> Subject: [pbs] Bulb referenced in 'Bulbs for Warm Climates' I think I may have tracked this down. With a little help from Steve M (private email), I learned that × Coobranthus became × Zephybranthus. Juggling information obtained by Googling that, and the brief description given by Dr. Howard, I believe this is (now) named Zephyranthes 'Laredo Yellow.' It's considered to be one of the 'La Bufa Rosa' Group as it was found in near vicinity of the original group site, at around the same time. Since it was first observed in 'a garden in Laredo' it was named 'Laredo Yellow.' I have been unable to find a verified photo of Z. 'Laredo Yellow' (or any info on a retailer). However, both Dr. Howard, and Yucca Do Nursery (discovered 'La Bufa Rosa' Group) reference first observation as a yellow rain lily growing in a garden in Laredo, so I think this is it. Thanks.
