Rain Lily Care

Rain lily grows best in full sun and well-drained soil. It does not blossom well in shade. Plant bulbs 2 to 3 inches deep and 3 to 4 inches apart in spring. Water bulbs well after planting and cover the soil with a 1-inch layer of fine mulch. Native to dry regions, rain lily grows best in average to dry soil. Only water plants during extreme dry periods. Rain lily is hardy in Zones 7 through 10, where it will come back year-after-year. In cooler Zones, dig up bulbs before the first fall frost. Dry bulbs in a cool, dry spot for several days before placing them in peat or vermiculite and storing them in a frost-free location. Find out everything you need to know about bulbs here.
