Rain Lilly Pink – Flower Bulbs

Tired of high-maintenance flowers that dry out in the heat? These Pink Rain Lily Bulbs (Zephyranthes grandiflora) bring instant charm to your garden right after a good monsoon rain or deep watering. With soft pink, trumpet-shaped blooms, they’re perfect for small balcony pots, border edges, or sunny kiyaris — no daily care needed.

These heat-tolerant, perennial bulbs thrive in Pakistan’s summer-to-monsoon climate and bloom in flushes every few weeks. Even a 6-inch pot is enough to enjoy their color bursts. Once planted, they multiply slowly and return year after year.
