Atamasco rain-lily (Zephyranthes atamasca)

Jacksonville FL

I've passed these Lilies on the roadside for years.
They show up briefly for short time in Spring here in Florida. Along roadsides with wetlands abuting the road. I always intend to stop on the way back and yesterday
I finally did so.
It turns out these are native lilies and are named Atamasco rain-lily (Zephyranthes atamasca).
\They flower a few days after a rainfall and thus the rain lily.

If I'm right they are Simpson's rain-lily one of the two varieties.
