Rain lilies usually prefer full sun, but can also take light shade. They perform well in evenly moist and well drained soil. These petite charmers are perfect for filling in bare garden spaces, as they gently naturalize and weave through established plants. The Crocus-like flowers, which arrive in various bright shades, require minimal care to stay stunning from late summer into early fall.

Care and Tips -

Several of the zephyr lilies (genus Zephyranthes) are called "rain lily", but this one most deserves that name: Zephyranthes grandiflora blooms numerous times throughout the summer and autumn, always after a rain that follows a dry period.

Grow potted rain lilies in a soil-based potting mix with extra sand added.

They do best when crowded and slightly pot-bound.

During the summer, fertilize every 3-4 weeks with a balanced fertilizer.

Outdoors, rain lilies like a moist but well drained soil in full sun.

Light: Grow rain lilies in full sun, or in part shade, especially a high shade from tall trees.
