Nerine Bowdenii Lily, Naked Lady Lily, Pink Ladies, Surprise Lily (Southern USA)

Nerines have several names. Nerine Bowdenii goes by Guernsey Lilies, Jersey Lilies or Cape Flowers and because of their habit of the leaves coming separately from the blossoms, they get referred to as Naked Ladies. We receive these in the spring while other colors we receive in the fall. 

The leaves pop up, the leaves die and sometime later, lilies start popping up and you have blooms before you know it. 

They bloom in late summer and the pink color is a wonderful addition to the garden.
