This species are native to southern USA, Texas. Its quite easy to grow in the tropics. The coloration are very strong yellow.

In my hybrids, i consider there's three types of bulb production. Fast, medium and slow bulb production.

And there's also 3 types of clumps based on bulb production. Fast; usually they multiply like scallot. You can found this in candida, rosea, etc. This type of clumps are quite attractive in the landscape, as they provide lots of greens like grasses or daylilies but usually will give you small size bulbs and lots of them which cause most of these types usually are shy blommers.

Medium; usually they multiply like primulina, miradorensis, etc. These types of clumps These types could provide medium to large size bulbs, and the clumps types are like fast type, but with less leaves. These types usually the most prolific and could provide lots of bloom, but its not always like that.

Slow; slow growth and bulb production in zephyranthes came from their species ancestors. You can found these traits in katherinae, drumondii, citrina, etc. They do not provide you clumps, as they are only one but big bulb, so you need to make it artificially. Usually these types are prolific with large size blooms. But they do multiply but in a very very slow mode and sometimes they dont.

Zodiac Surprise was breed by Felix Fadjar Martha. He said it was once sold exclusively for his Singapore client; Gardens of the Bay.

But it could be found in USA and even in Taiwan and Hongkong today. In Taiwan and Hongkong, they are called as 'Indonesia Fadjar Martha Hybrid', but the original name is Zodiac Surprise. This pink rounded blooms with sweet fragrance are very easy to multiply.

These are my selected hybrids with a good purple color. In the future zephyranthes with purple or maybe maroon burgundy wine color will be true!

All these hybrids crossed from labufarosa and large flowering hybrids of Felix Fadjar Martha. Its surely have 3 species inside the plant; fadjars pink, citrina and labufarosa.

Here's my selection of hybrids with extra large flowers. I believe one day my future hybrids will be as big and as beautiful as tulips in Holland.

While some are promising to be doubles! And green!!

My hybrids tend to have various size of leaves broadness. Some picture here show how the broadness and a comparation between two types of leaves coloration; bluish and common green.
