Lycoris & Spider Lily Bulbs – Rare, Late-Summer Blooming Flowers

Lycoris bulbs, commonly known as Spider Lily bulbs or Surprise Lily bulbs, are prized for their dramatic, spider-like flowers that bloom in late summer to early fall—often when few other plants are flowering. These unique perennial bulbs send up tall, leafless flower stalks topped with eye-catching blooms in shades of red, pink, white, and yellow, creating an unforgettable display in gardens and landscapes.

Lycoris spider lilies are extremely easy to grow, drought-tolerant once established, and return reliably year after year. Their unusual growth cycle and exotic flower form make them a favorite for gardeners looking to add rare bulbs, low-maintenance perennials, and late-season color to their landscape.
