Hi all, Zephyranthes are mainly summer growing, and need both heat and lots of water in summer. Cooler and dryish in winter should be OK. They are called Rain Lilies because they tend to bloom most following heavy rains. Some grow and bloom only when there is standing water near them. Try growing them under glass or plastic, in full sun, with the pots standing in saucers filled with water in summer. I can't guarantee results, but this might help.
