Gonna be good!

I just noticed these things, whatever they arecoming up today! I thought there was nothing else that Was going to come up in this hopeless bed of bishops weed (just bought the house, so it's not my fault, and I have not had time to cut back the sunburnt leaves yet). Any ideas what these are going to be? Part sun in 6b. I know I know, I should just post once they open up, but I am excited.

Looks like a Lycoris, aka Naked Lady.

Agreed - blooms while the foliage is dormant; the foliage will come back up later.

Interesting that it can compete in a thick field of Bishop's weed (apparently suffering from the drought).

Thanks yes it is definitely Lycoris squamigera. Here is an update pic taken 48 hours later!
