Description

Habranthus tubispathus var. texensis, commonly known as the Texas Rain Lily or Copper Lily, is a charming perennial bulb native to Texas and neighboring regions. This variety is known for its warm coppery-orange to yellow flowers that bloom sporadically, often triggered by rainfall. The funnel-shaped flowers rise above slender, grass-like foliage, making it an attractive addition to rock gardens, borders, or naturalized meadow plantings. Its delicate beauty belies its toughness, as it thrives in a range of soils and is drought-tolerant once established. This plant is a favorite among pollinators, particularly bees and butterflies.

Sowing Advice

Seeds may be sown at any time of the year onto a well-drained compost and covered very thinly indeed with compost or grit, leaving some of the seed showing as light may aid germination. Keep the pot moist at a temperature of between 18 and 22 degrees C in a well-lit position. Seeds should germinate within 2 to 6 weeks but may take longer. Pot on into small pots before finally planting into a large pot, or outside in warmer countries.
