Lycoris cultivation

I saw some blooming in one of Harry Hay's polytunnels (just south of
London) a year ago, August 2003. (But then again, England was having
all-time record heat at that time too.)

The general experience is that Lycoris do not prosper anywhere in the
UK, as
it is simply not hot enough in summer. The only report of success I've
heard
is of someone growing them in a very hot polytunnel in the southeast.
