Lycoris is a genus of 13-20 species of flowering plants in the Amaryllidaceae. They are native to Eastern and Southern Asia. They are bulb producing perennial plants.
The leaves are long and slender, and the flowers can be white, yellow, orange or red.
For outdoor landscape planting, find a spot with well-drained soil where your Lycoris will receive full sun. Dig holes and plant your bulbs 6–9″ apart with their necks above the surface and their pointed tops facing upwards.
For container planting, locate a vessel large enough to support your plants with adequate drainage holes and fill it with a commercial potting mix that drains well. Dig holes and plant your bulbs 6–9″ apart with their necks above the surface and their pointed tops facing upwards. Place your container where it will get full to three-quarters day direct sun.
Water thoroughly to settle the soil around the bulbs.
Flowering: August-September.
Height: 60cm.
