Which Naked ladies??

Hi everyone,
Here in central Indiana, the first scapes of Lycoris chinensis and of L.
longituba are just now appearing above ground.
We also call them "Surprise Lilies" here in the boondocks of Hoosierland.

Dear All;
Since 'their seasons' are coming, it would be most helpful if all
members would be exact about which Naked Ladies they mean- Amaryllis
belladonnna or Lycoris species. After all we usually use exact (ie
scientific names) here avoid confusion.
L. sanguinea kiusiana is done already-extremely early and the
first flowering stems are up for L squamigera. Others to follow.
