OHH!, Those lycoris are amazing!!! Where are the leaves? Sometimes i get so jealous of southern climate, im saying this as I should be taking Cannas out of the ground :/ Cannas are probally one of the easiest to grow plants in the south, even here all i do is plant then walk away, and dig them up at the end of season! One thing I have managed to keep alive for 2 years is the hardy bannana(but it is a pain in the butt to protect over winter!) We here have lately had above average temps after that flirting with frost so many of my plants are saoking rays outside still, as I clean my garden for the end of season. Tiffany, do u grow vegetable? I manage to keep spinach alive here over the winter in a mini greenhouse.

TYVM, TG! There are several species of Lycoris, and one thing they have in common is how they bloom 'naked,' while the foliage is not present. The foliage was present earlier in the year, then died back during the heat. They are a bittersweet sight, pretty, but a harbinger of winter. Lycoris squamigera, a pink one, should be hardy where you are.

Sometimes I grow a few things to eat. We have a spot & plans to try to start a fairly large veggie patch next spring. Hopefully I'll get the hang of it, I can never remember to start so much earlier than I did in OH. Cool to hear about your spinach. Whenever I can get some growing, we use that instead of lettuce on sandwiches, salads. YUM!

If you have this problem again, I'll gladly take you up on this offer ... especially the Callisia Fragrans!!! =)

Yes, I have TONS of this stuff! Replied to your message.

There are other patches of it, but here's some of this years' extra plants that I don't have room to bring back inside after growing so much this summer.

Still have way more of this than I can bring inside. Anyone else want some?
