Can anyone identify this?

The close up helps a lot. I don’t think it is L. caldwellii and defer to someone who knows these tender fall foliage species.      Best		Jim W. 


PS It would help to know more about the size of the flowering stems, season of bloom and foliage emergence etc.  With some more info I might be able to narrow it down for the grower.

Robin,

	The pic came in clear.

	If this were in Kansas City, I’d think Lycoris caldwellii, but Natchez is warm enough to grow L. houdyshelii or L. albiflora etc. Definitely a Lycoris, but not sure from 1 pic and no other info.		Best		Jim W.

I received a request for identification of this plant. These came from an
old home in Natchez, Mississippi and the gardener does not have a recognized
name for them but thinks they are some sort of white spider lily. She lives
in Jackson, MS. I can't help her as I'm woefully ignorant of the tropical or
sub-tropical bulbs.



Thanks,



Robin Hansen
