You have to scroll down a bit on the page!
it lists your link there. :-)

http://tinypic.com/dr37fn.jpg

I just posted a pic there of one in my yard that does that.
Is this one the same as yours?
I don't know what it is either and was planning to post it,
so here it is!

Cheers!

That's lycoris, a great fall flowering bulb for our area. It naturalizes
readily and needs no care whatsoever.

Thanks!

Funny thing is I don't recall planting it. <lol>
But now I want MORE of them!

They are so very pretty....

Anyone know where these might be sold?

Cheers!

They sell them at all the good nurseries in town: The Natural Gardener,
Barton Springs Nursery, etc. Can't remember if these are spring or fall
planting though. My guess is spring.

Most likely spring as you said. :-)
I found some on line "on sale".
I imagine I could probably store them in the refrigerator
over the winter as long as I could keep them from molding.

Cheers!
