Growing Wild in Rome | Walter Reeves: The Georgia Gardener

Name that plant

Growing in rocky soil. Not in any garden environment. Will it naturally spread?

Marysplants Leaf Lover says:

I love these!!! I call mine spider lillies. But they are know as hurricane lillies. They have bulbs and after the flowers die down green stalks/leaves emerge and you can dig and plant them whereever you like. They will come back years after years!!!!! I dug bulbs from my mom’s yard that had bloomed 30 + years! For me 25 years. No pests eat the bulbs. To me they are simply amazing. You can google info and bulbs are for sale online or at home improvement stores. You will have a friendly little spider face to greet you every year! Also in colors of orange pink and white. I only have red. Good luck!
