Zephyranthes aka Zephyrlily

Zephyranthes is a genus of plants in the Amaryllis family, known for their star-shaped blooms and grasslike foliage. They are native to the Western Hemisphere, but widely cultivated as ornamentals. The genus includes over 200 recognized species, as well as hybrids and cultivars, with common names such as fairy lily, rainflower, zephyr lily, magic lily, Atamasco lily, and rain lily. The name is derived from the Greek god of the west wind, Zephyrus, and the word for flower, anthos. One popular species of Zephyranthes is Zephyranthes candida, also known as the zephyr flower or rain lily. These plants bloom after a rain and can be planted in the ground in Sunset's Climate Zones 4 through 32. Plant bulbs in early spring, 2 to 3 inches deep and 3 to 4 inches apart. The plant's foliage grows to 6 inches to 1 foot tall and produces pink-tinged, white blooms in late summer to early fall. In warmer regions, it can be used as an evergreen ground cover and requires little regular care once established. Another rare species is Zephyranthes puertoricensis, which makes a great houseplant. It prefers long-lasting, direct light and well-draining soil. Repot every time it doubles in size, and it shouldn't need added fertilizers.
