How to Grow and Care for Resurrection lily

Resurrection lily, also known as Magic lily, Naked ladies, Surprise lily, Hardy amaryllis, Pink magic lily

Resurrection lily is a resilient perennial bulb known for its simple care requirements. Key care points involve planting resurrection lily bulbs in well-draining soil and providing full to partial sun, which is vital for robust growth and flowering. A special care aspect is the plant's preference for dry summer conditions; it requires little to no watering during this dormant period. Adequate spacing to accommodate growth and minimal winter care make resurrection lily a low-maintenance addition to gardens.

Resurrection lily produces distinctive foliage in late winter to early spring, with silver-grayish green, strap-like leaves growing about 12 inches (30 cm) in length and 1 inch (2.5 cm) in width, forming in clumps. These leaves die back by late spring. Surprisingly, without the presence of leaves, resurrection lily blooms in late summer to fall, displaying fragrant flowers that rise on 2-foot (60 cm) tall stalks. Each flower consists of 6 to 8 funnel or trumpet-shaped blossoms, which are a delicate rose-pink color tinged with lilac, each reaching up to 4 inches (10 cm) in size.
