| Zephyranthes grandiflora (L.) Herb. |
Zephyranthes grandiflora, common name Rosepink zephyrlily, Rosepink rain lily, Rosepink magic lily, Pink magic lily or Pink rain lily, is a perennial native of Central America and Mexico, with large (10 cm.), bright pink flowers and green strap-like leaves. They are found naturally in moist, open areas, often near woodlands. Another common name of this and other zephyranthes species, rain lily, refers to their habit of blooming soon after a heavy rainfall.
They are widely grown in gardens as annuals and as container plants, although they will overwinter in warm climates.
