Accession Data:
Lycoris aurea (L'Hér.) Herb.
- Common Name: Golden Hurricane Lily
- Family: Amaryllidaceae J. St-Hil.
- Country of Origin: China, Taiwan, Burma
- Description: [syn. Lycoris aurea (L'Her) Herb.; Amaryllis aurea L'Her.]
- Culture: Grow Lycoris as pot plants using a slightly acidic potting mix with a liberal amount of slow-release fertilizer. Like Nerine and many other amaryllids with fleshy roots, they need to be kept completely dry and undisturbed from the time the leaves die back until the flower stems appear. But unlike Nerine, they do not appreciate high soil temperatures.
