Опис
Plant bulbs 3–4 inches deep in well-drained, moist to average soil in partial shade to full sun; red spider lily (originally from China and Japan, long naturalized in the American South) is famous for its 'surprise' appearance — naked stalks push up abruptly from bare ground in September with no foliage, opening into clusters of brilliant crimson flowers with long arching stamens, then disappearing as quickly, followed weeks later by winter-to-spring foliage that dies back in summer. Plant along path edges, under deciduous trees, or in massing where the unusual bloom timing creates a dramatic seasonal event. Do not disturb established colonies — they bloom best when crowded. The bulbs are toxic; plant away from areas where children might dig. A beloved heirloom bulb of Southern gardens.
Спосіб посадки: Посадка цибулин

Plant bulbs 3–4 inches deep in late summer or fall; do not bury too deeply as shallow planting promotes better bloom. The bulbs have an unusual growth cycle — never remove foliage as it builds the bulb's energy reserve for next year's bloom.
