Vibrant Pink Blooms with a Delicate Yellow Centre
Rain Lily 'Flora Love' is a beautiful flowering bulb belonging to the Amaryllidaceae family and native to the tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas. This attractive Zephyranthes variety is admired for its compact, clump-forming habit, graceful grass-like foliage, and reliable blooming after rainfall. Its vibrant flowers and easy-care nature make it an excellent choice for gardens, balconies, patios, and decorative containers.
Flora Love produces striking star-shaped flowers in vibrant pink to magenta-pink shades, featuring broad, pointed petals with delicate lighter pink streaks. The flowers have a soft yellow-green centre accented by prominent yellow to cream-coloured stamens, creating an attractive contrast against the vivid petals. Growing to approximately 15–25 cm in height with a spread of 10–15 cm, this compact variety flowers during the monsoon and post-monsoon season, often blooming within days of rainfall. Its colourful flowers and neat foliage make it suitable for borders, rock gardens, and decorative pots.
Environment
Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade. At least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight daily promotes healthy growth and abundant flowering.
Watering: Water moderately during active growth, allowing the soil to drain well between watering. Reduce watering once the foliage naturally enters dormancy.
Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Avoid prolonged waterlogging to maintain healthy bulbs.
Fertilizer: Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced flowering fertilizer to encourage vigorous growth and repeat blooms.
