The red spider lily (Lycoris Radiata) AKA Surprise, Hurricane, Resurrection Lily etc., produces bulbs to start new plants. The optimal time to plant is spring, although the bulbs can be planted during the summer months. The lilies are hardy in USDA zones 7 through 10. The flower stems grow about 18” - 24" and the flower is around 4” – 5” in diameter. The bulbs multiply and will eventually need to be divided. In colder climates, Bulbs should be planted indoors in a pot with organic soil and kept inside until after the last freeze of the season. Or stored in a dry cool dark area until ready to plant. Partial shade to full sun is ideal for the spider lily. Lilies grown in partially shady bloom tend to bloom earlier than those grown in sunny locations. Try planting bulbs in both sunny and shady areas to stagger the number of plants blooming throughout the season. The lily grows in most types of well-drained soil, but they grow best in organically rich soils that retain moisture but aren't prone to excessive moisture. Soils need to remain on the dry side during the summer when the bulbs go into their dormant stage. The bulbs will rot if planted in soil that is always wet. Named Surprise Lily because of the long leafless stem and large flower just appear seemingly out of nowhere, in late fall. The foliage grows after the flower and should stay green through winter and dies off in early spring*. Some folks call it a hurricane lily because it blooms at the end of summer during hurricane season. Spider lily bulbs, when dug up from the soil, are not attached to each other by roots because they naturally propagate by producing "daughter bulbs" which grow as separate entities around the mother bulb, essentially forming a clump where each bulb has its own root system, not interconnected roots between them; this allows for easy division when you want to transplant new spider lilies
