I don't grow rain lilies as I haven't had much luck with them so I'm
certainly not an expert, but am wondering whether you can really
identify a species from a photograph, especially if it is grown from
seed. Seed from seed exchanges can be wrongly named and I don't think a
lot of us do what we need to do to make sure we don't have hybrids. How
often do the named strains come true from seed? It would seem like there
would be a lot of possibilities of hybrids.  I'm thinking of all the
work that was done by Fadjar Marta. Experts Flory and Flagg felt that a
lot of the named Texas species were natural hybrids.
