This bulb can bloom sporadically, so it is best to have a few. It will, however, propagate quite quickly and you'll have more a few years after planting.
Sprekelia is often known as the Aztec lily. It is in the amaryllis family, and perhaps the best way to describe it is to think of the color of an oxblood lily (Rhodophiala bifida), the foliage of a pink rain lily (Habrahthus robustus), and the bloom regularity of a spider lily (Lycoris radiata). The red is stunning when in bloom and the flower form is sure to be a conversation starter each and every time someone sees it!
