Zephyranthes carinata, commonly known as the rosepink zephyr lily<\/b> or pink rain lily<\/b>, is a perennial<\/span><\/a> flowering plant native to <\/span>Mexico<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Colombia<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Central America<\/span><\/a>. It is also widely cultivated as an ornamental and naturalized in the <\/span>West Indies<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Peru<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Argentina<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Brazil<\/span><\/a>, the southeastern United States from <\/span>Texas<\/span><\/a> to <\/span>Florida<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Zimbabwe<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>South Africa<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>China<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Korea<\/span><\/a>, the <\/span>Ryukyu Islands<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Assam<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Nepal<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Bhutan<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Sri Lanka<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Solomon Islands<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Queensland<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Society Islands<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Kiribati<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>Caroline Islands<\/span><\/a>.[4]<\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Zephyranthes carinata<\/i> has large bright pink flowers, around 10 cm (4 in), and green strap-like leaves. They are found naturally in moist, open areas, often near woodlands.<\/span><\/div>\n
Like other <\/span>rain lilies<\/span><\/a>, their common name refers to their habit of blooming soon after a heavy rainfall. They are widely grown in gardens as annuals and as container plants, although they will overwinter in warm climates.<\/span><\/div>\n
Zephyranthes carinata<\/i> are often incorrectly referred to as Zephyranthes grandiflora<\/i>, especially in <\/span>horticulture<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/div>\n
Z. carinata<\/i> grows from <\/span>tunicate<\/span><\/a> globular <\/span>bulbs<\/span><\/a> 2 to 3 cm (0.8 to 1.2 in) in diameter. The tunics are wine-red in color. Four to six linear and flattened leaves are produced by each bulb. Each is 15 to 30 cm (6 to 12 in) long and 6 to 8 mm (0.24 to 0.31 in) wide, reddish at the bases and bright green for the rest of their lengths.[2]<\/span><\/a><\/sup>[5]<\/span><\/a><\/sup>[6]<\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/span><\/div>\n
The funnel-shaped flowers are solitary, with pink to rose red <\/span>perianths<\/span><\/a>. They are borne erect or slightly inclined on <\/span>scapes<\/span><\/a> 10 to 15 cm (4 to 6 in) long. The deep lilac to purplish <\/span>spathes<\/span><\/a> are 25 to 30 mm (1.0 to 1.2 in) long. There are two lengths of the <\/span>stamen<\/span><\/a> filaments – 15 mm (0.6 in) and 21 mm (0.8 in). The anthers are 6 mm (0.24 in) in length. The <\/span>style<\/span><\/a> is <\/span>filiform<\/span><\/a>.[2]<\/span><\/a><\/sup>[7]<\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/span><\/div>\n
The flowers develop into more or less spherical or three-lobed <\/span>capsules<\/span><\/a>. The seeds are shiny black and flattened<\/span>.[6]<\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/div>\n
Z. carinata<\/i> is often referred to as Zephyranthes grandiflora<\/i>, especially in <\/span>horticulture<\/span><\/a>. But the former was published earlier, hence Z. grandiflora<\/i> is considered superfluous and <\/span>illegitimate<\/span><\/a>. Another name identified as an earlier <\/span>synonym<\/span><\/a> of Z. carinata<\/i> is now considered to be a different species – Zephyranthes minuta<\/a><\/i>.[1]<\/span><\/a><\/sup>[1]<\/span><\/a><\/sup>[5]<\/span><\/a><\/sup>[7]<\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/span><\/div>\n

\nOur common beautiful monsoon flower <\/span>Zephyranthes grandiflora<\/i> will be known as <\/span>Zephyranthes minuta<\/i> from 2015. It means it will revert to its old name.<\/span><\/div>\n

Thanks, … This appears to be Pink Rain Lily<\/span><\/a> (Zephyranthes carinata)<\/b><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Yes friends, this is also known as Zephyranthes carinata<\/i>. It is going to be known as Zephyranthus minuta<\/i> next year onwards.<\/p>\n

\n

I could not understand how it will be called Z. minuta next year onwards. There is no such provision in the Code to my knowledge<\/p>\n

The three names have often been confused, but as understood now there are two distinct species:<\/div>\n
1.\u00a0Zephyranthes minuta<\/i> (Kunth) D.Dietr. (syn:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Amaryllis minuta<\/i> Kunth; Z. grandiflora<\/i> Lindl.)- Pink Rain Lily<\/span><\/div>\n

I read in one of the RHS magazines. I will try and if I could see that issue (tough I subscribe for it), mail the scan of it.<\/p>\n

\n

attaching the scan of the magazine for you all. Attachments (1) – Emailing Asters-TheGarden.zip<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

It has already been changed and shown as Z.minuta<\/i> (Kunth) D.Dietr. in <\/span>The Plant List<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

It has nothing to do with Zephyranthes.<\/em> The paper simply says that website of RHS will start using the name Symphyotrichum from 2015 onwards for certain species which they were listing under Aster.<\/p>\n

I think this Zephyranthis rosea<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
yes. pink rain lily. would like to know the size of the flower, across. likely Z. carinata<\/i>. The stamens seem to be all of equal length, in this one picture number 3= z. carinata<\/i>
\n==<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
in Z. rosea<\/i> the stamens are in slightly unequal sets. see this key
