white rain lily seeds Zephyranthes candida 'White Rain Lily'One of the most widely adapted rain lilies in the South, this late summer fall bloomer quickly clumps into impressive clusters of white star shaped flowers. White rain lilies have white star shaped blooms that bloom multiple times as summer gives way to fall, and the blooms coincide with schoolhouse lilies (aka oxblood lilies and available here). This lovely lily multiplies rapidly and will brighten your garden at a time when most blooms are wilting

One of the most widely adapted rain lilies in the South, this late summer/fall bloomer quickly clumps into impressive clusters of white star-shaped flowers. White rain lilies have white star shaped blooms that bloom multiple times as summer gives way to fall, and the blooms coincide with schoolhouse lilies (aka oxblood lilies and available here). This lovely lily multiplies rapidly and will brighten your garden at a time when most blooms are wilting in the heat. They thrive in full summer sun, but they do very well in partial shade also. They grow up to a foot tall, and the blooms appear to be sitting on a sea of green grass. Like the rest of their family, the white rain lilies bloom a few days after a summer shower. They have been known to perform well under irrigation as well.

Where to plant: These amazing versatile lilies can be planted anywhere from containers to rock gardens to water gardens. They prefer wet feet which makes them a great addition to those lower-lying areas that stay damp after a hard rain. The white rain lily does well even if it is in standing water for several days. They look amazing when planted along pathways or garden borders. Extremely dry soils will cause it to eventually decline so be sure to water if it is a dry summer. Do you have somewhere that stays boggy? Do you have a pot you have trouble keeping watered and you'd like to fill a pot with no holes once a week, rather than daily watering of well drained pots? Do you have a pond, and you'd like to plant a bulb along the edges that are dry in the summer but covered with water in the spring? Then this rain lily is for you.

Color and Foliage: The foliage is a lovely dark green, and has a rigid formality as the almost rush-like leaves tend upwards. This is in contrast to a flatter, greyish green foliage that tends to lay down in other rain lilies. Life appears thriving and perky in this little perennial flower. This rain lily is often overlooked as an amazing addition to the garden because people think that it is "simply white" and not eye-catching. Don't get us wrong. We love the pop of color that the Zephyranthes grandiflora and Z. citrina (the pink and yellow rain lilies) give us. By itself, the white rain lily puts on an impressive late summer show. Its clean lines and simplicity can also be used to help draw one's attention to something else that you want to showcase. Can you think of anything in your garden that wouldn't look great next to dark green foliage and white flowers?

How and when to plant: Plant now (or really any time that isn't a major freeze). It is August, and that means it is HOT here in Texas and most places! On top of the heat, we have had very little rain this summer and last. We have been watering our white rain lilies though and a few are showing their appreciation by giving us some blooms. Other summer flowers are almost completely spent by now, but this beauty is just beginning to show what she is made of. The foliage is a lovely dark green, and this little perennial flower is perky and thriving. The white rain lily looks delicate, but she is durable and hardy. Our white rain lily pots have been in full sun to partial shade in our 100+ degree temperatures all summer long. The bulbs have been multiplying and many of our pots are bursting at the seams.

Dormancy occurs at the first hard frost of winter. They will begin growing again next spring, and a second dormancy occurs if they get hot and dry in the summer. Then, with later summer showers and falling temperatures, the foliage will again flush out and have a growing season with their fall blooms.

Will they bloom? Everyone wants to know if the bulbs will produce flowers the first year. That's hard to answer because the answer is possibly, maybe, it depends. It depends on how late in the season you are planting them. Perennial bulbs take a while to get established. It depends on how much you pamper them. Do you water them every day trying to help them get adjusted to their new home or do you just wait for the rain? Flower bulbs are tough and will recover after planting. The important thing is that you are planting these perennials to perform well for next season. The foliage is the most important because the longer the bulb has to get established and have foliage, the better the blooms will be for the following year. It takes a lot of energy to produce blooms, and the more nutrients the bulb can store up from the season before the nicer the blooms.

Some people like to see how colors look together or different landscaping ideas so we have included a few extra pictures to showcase how you can use the white rain lily.

Perennial gardeners are always looking ahead. Remember you're planting a story, and these bulbs are for a lifetime!

Great kids' travel book about Barcelona
Format: Flexibound
Lonely Planet has some wonderful books designed to make an intimidating city full of interest and fun for kids. Most travel guides have way too much information for young travelers. This one about Barcelona has the most interesting information broken down into bite sized pieces for kids. All the pages are lively and colorful. They have photographs and illustrations. The guide contains what you want to know about zoos, museums, food, history and more. The blocks of text are short enough for young readers to get through and absorb the information. There are also details presented in text boxes. Because it's not page after page of a lot of written information, it is very inviting for young readers. While the Table of Contents doesn't explain very clearly what each section contains, there is an index at the back to help guide you. This book is recommended for ages 9 to 12. I think it might be better for a younger range, like 7 to 10. Either way, I think it's a great choice for any child traveling to Barcelona. While we have no plans to go anytime soon, my kids still looked through the pages of this book and enjoy learning about this foreign city. It's a good one to keep on our bookshelf and look through time and time again.

More Tapas Please!
Format: Flexibound, Format: Flexibound
If you are bringing kids along to a new city like Barcelona, the Lonely Planet Kids book provides a great introduction for the children. It has very little of the adult stuff about hotels and restaurants and nothing on how much they cost. It is all about sites and experiences. This lonely Planet book is divided into sixteen trails. There are marked starting points for each one on a map of the city, but no directions about getting from one attraction to the next along the trail. That must be the job of the adults. The groupings include history, castles, shopping, sports, parks, outdoor recreations, and food. I think that there should be more on food. There are over eighty pages in the book. Each page is rendered in bright color drawings and photographs. The images and the explanations each take up about the same amount of room, although I think that the images have the advantage. This is a great book for the kids and for adults who want to get the essence of the city without getting bogged down in details.

Really fun and great for homeschooling or travel prep
Format: Flexibound
If you plan on traveling to Barcelona and want to get the kids excited and pumped for the visit, this would be a perfect book to read. There are so many different interesting aspects covered, from Barcelona's fashion week, to interesting wildlife found at the local parks, to statues and local history, that it really makes things rich and interesting. What I love best is the design and layout. There are photographs mixed with drawings mixed with text in different sidebars and bubbles. It's just really fun to read and fun to browse. The one thing that I don't like is that some books like this have a type of stinky ink that gives me an immediate headache. Unfortunately, this book has that stinky ink., and even letting it air out with some of the pages splayed open, has not dissipated the smell.

Inviting layout for kids and very informative!
Format: Flexibound
My 9 year old son loves this book! He is a huge fan of the Lonely Planet books. We have their books on Countries and Cities which he loves and is always pulling off the shelf to read but he loves these new City Trails books even more. If you are familiar with their other kid books this series is very similar. The information is presented in bite size chunks that are about a paragraph long. His favorite part was the the thematic trails which provide the information on a few pages under a different theme throughout the city. He loves the the real pictures of the city and the fun graphics, like cartoon people and information put in a phone. My son loves trivia and fun facts so this book is perfect for him. He loved telling me lots of things I had never heard of before. This was an informational book for him that gave him a lot of great information about the country and culture and would be an excellent choice to prepare for a trip. I remain very impressed with how engaging Lonely Planet makes information inviting to kids. I will definitely be buying him more books in this series.

Easy and exciting
Format: Paperback
3.5⭐️ I didn't know that this book was the third part of the Campus Police series. But it reads well as a stand-alone book. The first two books are about the other two couples who also appear here. This time, the story revolves around Cappy, who is back after a few weeks away and her grandfather's funeral, and Jazz, a librarian with a special flair for decorating her office. In this short time, a lot has changed in Cappy's personal life, and she has to get used to it all again. Brian, a talented football player who was forced to completely change his life after a traffic accident, is found dead. Initially, it is classified as suicide, but Jazz insists on a more thorough investigation of the case, as she is convinced that Brian was looking forward to the future despite adverse circumstances. Cappy is assigned to determine whether it was a crime. The interviews Cappy conducted to uncover all the circumstances and background information were interesting. However, I found it a little strange that a civilian was allowed to attend these interviews. Jazz and Cappy have mutual friends who are all professionally involved with the campus. The banter between them is amusing, and the romance between Cappy and Jazz is nice and sweet. An easy-to-read book with amusing and likable characters, good and witty dialogue, and some suspense.
