Oxblood Lily, and L. squamigera

Hi,

About a month ago some reported their Rhodophiala bifida in bloom. I
wondered if mine were going to skip the year.

Last week one scape popped up, and this week a half dozen more clumps are
blooming. I wonder what the clues are for this plant, when it knows to bloom?

Maybe there is hope yet for my Lycoris squamigera. They were in full bloom a
month ago at a friend's home in central Maryland. Mine have yet to bloom.
Last year there was only a single scape, I wonder if they are particular about
warm winters?
