Blooms reach 9–10 cm across — the largest in our collection and extraordinary for this genus — mostly white with a soft dusting of pink blushing. The broader petal shape is inherited from the 'Big Dude' parent, giving the flowers an unusually full, open appearance. One characteristic worth knowing: like its 'El Cielo' parent, this hybrid closes its flowers at night and reopens each morning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlowers well through summer and autumn after rain in full sun to part shade. Multiplies very well via offsets and prefers to be somewhat crowded. Unlike many Zephyranthes hybrids, it sometimes sets seed and its pollen can be used in crosses with other Zephyranthes - we've used it ourselves in several of our OMG breeding lines. Suited to pots, garden beds, and rockeries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe variety to choose if you want the most dramatic flower in the genus.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Our Mountain Garden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52405245640993,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/5380\/9697\/files\/IMG_6113.jpg?v=1772259130","url":"https:\/\/our-mountain-garden.com.au\/products\/zephyranthes-el-cielo-big-dude-large-rain-lily-bulbs","provider":"Our Mountain Garden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
