Habranthus 
Very attractive ‘‘Rain  Lilies,’’ much like 
Zephyranthes and often listed as such. The dif- 
ference is that Zephyranthes flowers are upright 
while these flowers are at an angle to the stem. 
Flowers are produced singly on the stems and can 
be made to flower several times a year by allow- 
ing the bulbs to become completely dry occa- 
sionally.
