Zephyranthes feuillage fin sp?

This entry corresponds to a plant of the genus Zephyranthes noted for its fine foliage, whose precise species is not identified with certainty, so the description remains general. Zephyranthes, or "rain lilies", form a bulbous genus in the Amaryllis family, native to the Americas, growing in grassland and woodland edges. Their narrow foliage, here particularly fine and grass-like, arises from a tunicated bulb with reddish skin. The solitary flower, with six tepals fused into a funnel, opens flat during the day and lasts only a few days, flowering often triggered by heavy rain. Grown in full sun, these plants are frost-tender.
