(Lycoris sanguinea)
Sanguinea spider lily, also known as Surprise lily
Renowned for its vibrant trumpet-shaped flowers and resilience, sanguinea spider lily requires minimal pruning to maintain health and aesthetics. The ideal pruning period spans spring through fall. After flowering, trim spent blooms to prevent self-seeding and encourage next year's growth. Removal of dead or damaged foliage is essential, and can be done as needed. Pruning in late fall prepares sanguinea spider lily for dormancy. Benefits include promoting vigorous growth and bloom quality, alongside disease prevention.
