Zephyranthes candida 'Quite White' is a selection of the Argentina/Uruguay native rain lily we received in the early 2000s under the invalid name, "dwarf white." It also wasn't dwarf, topping out for us at 10" tall. This virtually sterile selection, flowers itself silly in late summer through early fall with 10" green stalks, topped with pure white flowers, accented by the golden pollen of the stamens. For us, it seems to be a slightly more dense grower than Zephyranthes candida 'Major', and with flowers that open a day later in each blooming cycle.
