Lycoris Red (Lycoris radiata) has large iridescent red flowers with reflexed petals and long curving stamens in Autumn.
Lycoris have a few common names; Spider Lily, Hurricane Lily and Cluster Amaryllis are just a few.
These hardy members of the Amaryllis family are dormant during the Summer months and bear their beautiful flowers during Autumn before growing foliage in the cooler months.
They like a hot sunny position during the warmer months, and grow best when they are left undisturbed. Lycoris are ideal for pots and containers rockeries and borders. Prefers a full sun position in fertile well drained soil.
