Had some good subjects in the greenhouse today, but they were in an aisle that's too narrow to set up a tripod very effectively. So today I have this rain lily. From Missouri Botanical Garden, http://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/PlantFinder/PlantFinderDetails.aspx?kempercode=a476 » “Zephyr lily is native to southern Mexico and Central America. Large, pink, open-faced, lily-like flowers (to 4") with white throats bloom in summer. Flowers appear singly atop upright stems rising 10-12" tall above a tuft of outward-spreading, narrow, green, strap-shaped leaves. Flowers flatten out as the day progresses, eventually closing in the evening. Plants in the genus Zephyranthes are sometimes commonly called rain lilies or rain flowers because they often burst into bloom immediately following periods of significant rain.”
