Spider Lily Red Lycoris radiata Garden Landscape Bulb Flower -- Channel James Plosko

Red Spider lily is the common name of numerous plants, including those of the small Ly-cor-is genus. Spider lilies are known for their striking blooms. They feature thin, delicate petals and long stamens, which result in flowers that resemble spider legs—hence the plant's common name. The blooms stretch about 6 inches or more across and emerge on a tall, naked stem in the late summer to fall. Blue-green foliage follows after the flowering is finished and remains until spring. Despite their common name, spider lilies are not true lilies. They are part of the amaryllis family. And similar to amaryllis plants, spider lilies are dormant from the midspring to midsummer months, but they grow quickly after they sprout. The bulbs are best planted in the late summer or fall. Be careful where you plant because spider lilies are toxic both to people & pets. Mature Size 1–2 ft. tall, 1–1.5 ft. wide Sun Exposure Full, partial Soil Type Well-drained Soil pH Acidic, neutral, alkaline Bloom Time Summer, fall Dallas TX mid September Flower Color Red, orange, pink, white, yellow Hardiness Zones 6–10 (USDA) Native Area Asia Welcome to the James Plosko channel. All about common, interesting and unusual plants in detail. Spider Lily Care--RRR Here are the main care requirements for growing spider lilies: Plant them away from automatic garden irrigation systems to avoid accidental watering. Plant spider lily bulbs approximately 6 to 12 inches apart, and leave 1/4 inch of each bulb top (the pointed end) sticking out above the soil. Gently firm the soil around the bulb. Do not disturb them by digging in their area. Don't water from midspring to midsummer, as they are dormant during this time. They don't require pruning, Spider lilies are not prone to any serious pest or disease issues.

Choosing a location that receives at least five to six hours of direct sunlight on most days is best. Soil Well-draining soil is essential for spider lilies. The bulbs can rot in waterlogged soil. An organically rich sandy or loamy soil with a slightly acidic to slightly alkaline soil pH will do. Amending the soil annually with bark, compost, or mulch will help to boost its nutrient content and improve its drainage. Water When they’re actively growing, spider lilies have moderate water needs. The soil should be kept lightly moist but never soggy. Then, as soon as the foliage degrades in the springtime, cease watering until flowering begins again in the late summer or fall. Fertilizer In the early spring, spider lilies benefit from an application of high-nitrogen fertilizer. In the autumn after flowering, spider lilies should be fed with a high-phosphorus fertilizer. This will help them survive the winter cold. Types of Spider Lily Spider lilies are low-maintenance perennials that can add a pop of fall color to any garden. Be sure to like this video Propagating Spider Lilies--rrr Healthy spider lilies will multiply in clumps over the years. So the best way to propagate your plants is by division once they are at least a few years old. Plan to divide a clump right after it goes dormant in the early summer. Not only does dividing provide you with new plants you can locate elsewhere, but it also prevents clumps from becoming overcrowded and losing their vigor. Please subscibe to this channel. In containers--rrr Spider lilies can be grown in containers, though the containers must be large to accommodate their expansive root system. Opt for a container that's at least 12 inches wide and deep. It also should have ample drainage holes. Unglazed clay is an ideal material, as it will allow excess soil moisture to evaporate through its walls, helping to prevent the bulbs from rotting. Avoid having to repot by using a large container from the start, as spider lilies don't like to have their roots disturbed. OTHER INFORMATION. How to Get Spider Lilies to Bloom-rrr Spider lilies should readily bloom if their growing conditions are met. A common problem that results in a lack of blooms is the bulb being planted too deep or facing the wrong way. That pointed tip must be slightly above the soil line for blooming to occur. The naked flower stems will grow quickly, seemingly out of nowhere, in the late summer to early fall. It's not essential to deadhead, or remove the spent blooms. But it can help to promote further flowering. Bloom Months Spider lilies bloom in the midsummer through to early fall (July to September).red
