Zephyranthes 'Aquarius' (Aquarius Rain Lily)

Sun to Part SunZone: 7b-10, at least 8" tall Origin: Hybrid

This rapidly multiplying and floriferous rain lily is an E.L. Brasol hybrid, presumed to be a cross involving Z. candida and Z. citrina (actually Z. 'Ajax' probably backcrossed to Z. candida). After rain in summer and early fall, the 8" tall clumps are smothered with large creamy cups, highlighted by the yellow anthers. In our trials, Z. 'Aquarius' seems to be apomictic (comes true from seed). Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
