Spider Lily (Lycoris radiata)


My article on Spider Lilies is posted at Garden and Hearth in the flower gardening section. The spider lilies in my garden came from my mother-in-law's house. She said she had gotten them from her mother-in-law, who got them from her mother. I think it's nifty when a plant has a story or a memory attached to it. This one has a little history.

The spider lily in the above photo has been growing in that spot for several years, but the annuals around it are new every season.
