Big black butterfly breakfasts on the first higanbana that bloomed this morning in our garden.

I saw a yard full of higanbana last week on my way to the bank. However, not a single one of mine has popped up. My red fall flower is the oxblood lily. I still have my fingers crossed that the higanbana will follow.

If they've got their equinox link, they'll be up! If it's the first time though, they may lag a bit...
I've been wondering, though: if they don't produce seed, how are they cropping up in new and distant places in my garden each year?
I just read an article in a U.S. mag about how these little bulbs are the BEST for the Southern US gardens. I must get me some.
