This native lily is also known as the "Texas Spider Lily." Every April, these spidery white blooms begin to appear in wetland areas across Texas and the Southeastern United States. They make large clumps and showy displays in settings that are often too hostile to other bulbs and plants. The flowers fade as we head into May, but the show is well worth it! They produce multiple softball-size blooms atop strong stalks amid dark green foliage. In pond areas, they look like islands of white color!

We can start with a lot of things to say about the "Texas Spider lily", but let's just start with that it is one-of-a-kind and one of the only natives we readily grow and promote. As gardeners, we are always looking for something to make our garden beautiful yet connected to our environment as well. The "Texas Spider lily" offers a unique opportunity to satisfy both of those goals. As a native though, we want to be very clear on something. Natives like to be in specific conditions.

WARNING: Yes, we have this above, but we want your bulbs to be successful for you and this is extremely important! Please note that the native habitat for this bulb is an environment in which it is extremely wet in the spring, and dry in the summer. Some examples of this would be fields that have standing water in the spring but dry out in the summer, spillways from lakes or ponds that over flow in the spring but don't in the summer, stream banks that are high in the spring and low in the summer, bar ditches that collect water in the spring off the side of a road, etc. The bulbs are smaller than what you would expect for the amount of blooms they eventually put out once they are mature. We have them circling the farm ponds at the Southern Bulb Company farm. In August, these ponds are lower and dry around the banks...the bulbs love it, and bloom in standing water in April when the ponds are high.

Appearance: When the "Texas Spider lily" blooms, the white "spiders" sit on tall, narrow stems. The dark green stems usually stand about 2 feet tall, but they can grow up to 3 feet tall depending on the conditions. The blooms usually appear in April, and the white blooms cluster to create a softball-size clump. The Hymenocallis liriosme is distinguished from other varieties by the yellow center deep in the bloom's center. The "Texas Spider lily" has a light sweet fragrance.

Resilient: The "Texas Spider lily" is a hardy plant that can grow in zones 8-10. This bulb needs to be planted in an area that is extremely wet in the spring and dry in the summer. WARNING: Native flowers and bulbs can be hard to sometimes adapt to modern landscapes. Please note that the native habitat for this bulb is an environment in which it is extremely wet in the spring, and dry in the summer.

Uses for this Bulb: Some examples of this would be fields that have standing water in the spring but dry out in the summer, spillways from lakes or ponds that over flow in the spring but don't in the summer, stream banks that are high in the spring and low in the summer, bar ditches that collect water in the spring off the side of a road, etc.

Urban examples of use for this water loving flower include detention areas required for commercial construction, natural drainage areas that need native plants and aren't easily mowed, or areas that have clean water requirements and needs plants to help filter the water before it drains off site.

Native and History: This bulb is a native Texas bulb. It can endure the tough weather that Texas has to offer especially the hot dry summer in full sun. We have an early historical account of this bulb in the State of Texas. In the early to mid-1800's, explorer Jean Louis Berlandier, a Swiss-French botanist, charted the plants of Mexico, an area that included sections of present-day Texas. In his journal he describes a scene where his expedition party that hiked from San Antonio to Rusk, TX found itself surrounded by knee-high white lilies. Many believe these flowers were the white spidery blooms of Hymenocallis liriosme. Berlandier wrote of many interesting aspects of life in Texas in the mid 1850's, such as foot long fresh water prawns from the rivers taken to open markets in San Antonio in wooden wheel barrows. Alas, abundant foot long fresh water prawns in Texas rivers can no longer be found. However, the botanical displays of these white spider lilies have persisted and can still be enjoyed today! Drive county roads in April, and you could find yourself in the middle of these spectacular beauties. We're excited to offer them to our customers!

You will receive small to medium bulbs in this special offer. The bulbs were harvested from our wet spring soil so be prepared for them to look this way. The best thing that you can do is to plant them as soon as possible in conditions similar to their native environment - somewhere wet right now that will be dry this summer. We know that this means digging in the mud, but you are doing this for the bulbs and for the beautiful stand that you will have in the future!

Excellent Value for Price
I highly recommend one of these in your vehicle for emergencies. Don't fall for those handheld cordless ones you see on social media. Those will only inflate 1-2 tires before depleting. You have unlimited power for the plugins and it will inflate at least 4x faster. The AstroAI is compact, lightweight and powerful for its price. Everything folds into its rectangular form factor for easy storage. The UI is simple and to the point. You can easily set the target pressure and it will auto stop. It's also a nice looking design with black and yellow which are common colors for power tools and emergency equipment. If I were being picky, the 2 minor cons that you'll find in other brands are: no option to plug into wall outlet & doesn't come with a case or bag.

Great quality and design! Compact and easy to store in your car for emergencies.
These are handy to keep in your car for emergencies. Now that the weather is getting colder my tire pressure is going down on my car and I got tired of having to drive to a fas station and pay to put a bit of air in my tires (and often times those machines don't even work). I like design of this one with the always on light and the compartment on the back to store everything neatly. It is small and compact so it doesn't take much space to store in your car. It also comes with multiple attachments for various uses. I purchased this one as a gift for a white elephant gift for a family party coming up and hoping it will be a hit! With the great sale price it fit perfectly in the price range that was set.

Noisier than one I have
This does function the way it says it will and is easy to use. I tried it on 2 of my tires and did not like how it did not come off of my valve stem easily, compared to one I have. Seems it could potentially lead to stem damage over time, and when one goes out, your tire, obviously will not hold air (from personal experience). I sent it back and ordered another of the same one I previously purchased which is perfect and want to have a spare...just in case I need to loan one out or whatever. I cannot recommend this since I know there are better, quieter ones.

Great little air pump for the car! Easy to use and versatile!
This is a great little product! You set the psi limit for your object and it stops as soon as it is reached! No guessing about it. I have it in my care for emergencies but so far it has been useful for pumping up the grandkids tires, balls, floats, etc! It has several adapters for different things! Easy to use and fast!!
