Zephyranthes....Rain lilies

Zephyranthes rosea

Look at the stmens and the style

Zephyranthes citrina

I captured these flowers of Zephyranthes in our colony, Powergrid, Nellore.

Rain lilies are the most commonly found ornamental plants in our area, they are also available in white which is not in the pictures though. They spread very easily and the bulbs are the method of propogation, The flowers bloom in the rains and in large numbers which makes it a very wonderful site to look at.

Without the flowers even the leaves are considered ornamental.
