Hymenocallis Speciosa-Spider Lily

Hymenocallis speciosa, commonly known as the Spider Lily, is a striking flowering plant known for its elegant, fragrant blooms.

The plant features long, narrow, arching leaves that form a lush, green clump.

Its flowers, however, are the true highlight. Each flower consists of several long, slender, white petals that curve backward, giving it the appearance of a spider’s delicate legs—hence the name “Spider Lily.” The flowers are typically large and fragrant, blooming in the late spring or early summer, and often emit a sweet scent in the evenings.
