Resurrection lilies

I can’t remember if I mentioned this at the time.

In May, someone listed Resurrection Lilies bulbs on Facebook Marketplace, very early one morning. 

I jumped out of bed, threw on some clothes, grabbed a bin and was the first one there. 

I picked carefully through the pile of bulbs and filled my bin. They were free, but I left $5 as a thank you under her doormat. 

I planted at my house, in two spots, and shared with one of my neighbors. 

The green (bulb) leaves disappeared sometime in June. 

The lily blooms popped up in late July. Photos of mine, next to the driveway, are below. I have noticed them, blooming, all over town, the last couple of weeks.
