I also have a few Sternbergia lutea blooming here in Wake County, central
North Carolina, USA (USDA Zone 7b). This is just a tease so far, most have
not emerged yet, but Rhodophiala bifida and Lycoris radiata are at peak
bloom now.

A few of the orangey-red Lycoris radiata are in a position to do a fantastic
job of clashing with the magenta-pink of the Anemone 'September Charm' which
hitchhiked into this bed on another plant and is now taking over. Probably
would be easiest to move these few Lycoris to another location. Then again,
the offending combination does not last long and I may just forget about it
until this time next year.
