Hymenocallis fluitans (Spider Lily)

Hymenocallis fluitans is a striking bulbous perennial admired for its unusual spider-like white flowers and strong evening fragrance. Each bloom features a central cup surrounded by long, narrow, arching petals, creating a dramatic, delicate appearance in garden beds and water-adjacent plantings.

Perfect for borders, mass planting, and water garden edges, Spider Lily thrives in moist, well-drained soils and performs best in sunny to partly shaded positions. Its elegant form, seasonal flowering, and fragrant blooms make it a standout ornamental plant for tropical and subtropical gardens.
