Sternbergia and Zephyranthes
J.E. Shields (Sun, 27 Oct 2013 12:04:03 PDT)

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.
