This native lily is also known as the "Texas Spider Lily." Every April, these spidery white blooms begin to appear in wetland areas across Texas and the Southeastern United States. They make large clumps and showy displays in settings that are often too hostile to other bulbs and plants. The flowers fade as we head into May, but the show is well worth it! They produce multiple softball-size blooms atop strong stalks amid dark green foliage. In pond areas, they look like islands of white color!

We can start with a lot of things to say about the "Texas Spider lily", but let's just start with that it is one-of-a-kind and one of the only natives we readily grow and promote. As gardeners, we are always looking for something to make our garden beautiful yet connected to our environment as well. The "Texas Spider lily" offers a unique opportunity to satisfy both of those goals. As a native though, we want to be very clear on something. Natives like to be in specific conditions.

WARNING: Yes, we have this above, but we want your bulbs to be successful for you and this is extremely important! Please note that the native habitat for this bulb is an environment in which it is extremely wet in the spring, and dry in the summer. Some examples of this would be fields that have standing water in the spring but dry out in the summer, spillways from lakes or ponds that over flow in the spring but don't in the summer, stream banks that are high in the spring and low in the summer, bar ditches that collect water in the spring off the side of a road, etc. The bulbs are smaller than what you would expect for the amount of blooms they eventually put out once they are mature. We have them circling the farm ponds at the Southern Bulb Company farm. In August, these ponds are lower and dry around the banks...the bulbs love it, and bloom in standing water in April when the ponds are high.

Appearance: When the "Texas Spider lily" blooms, the white "spiders" sit on tall, narrow stems. The dark green stems usually stand about 2 feet tall, but they can grow up to 3 feet tall depending on the conditions. The blooms usually appear in April, and the white blooms cluster to create a softball-size clump. The Hymenocallis liriosme is distinguished from other varieties by the yellow center deep in the bloom's center. The "Texas Spider lily" has a light sweet fragrance.

Resilient: The "Texas Spider lily" is a hardy plant that can grow in zones 8-10. This bulb needs to be planted in an area that is extremely wet in the spring and dry in the summer. WARNING: Native flowers and bulbs can be hard to sometimes adapt to modern landscapes. Please note that the native habitat for this bulb is an environment in which it is extremely wet in the spring, and dry in the summer.

Uses for this Bulb: Some examples of this would be fields that have standing water in the spring but dry out in the summer, spillways from lakes or ponds that over flow in the spring but don't in the summer, stream banks that are high in the spring and low in the summer, bar ditches that collect water in the spring off the side of a road, etc.

Urban examples of use for this water loving flower include detention areas required for commercial construction, natural drainage areas that need native plants and aren't easily mowed, or areas that have clean water requirements and needs plants to help filter the water before it drains off site.

Native and History: This bulb is a native Texas bulb. It can endure the tough weather that Texas has to offer especially the hot dry summer in full sun. We have an early historical account of this bulb in the State of Texas. In the early to mid-1800's, explorer Jean Louis Berlandier, a Swiss-French botanist, charted the plants of Mexico, an area that included sections of present-day Texas. In his journal he describes a scene where his expedition party that hiked from San Antonio to Rusk, TX found itself surrounded by knee-high white lilies. Many believe these flowers were the white spidery blooms of Hymenocallis liriosme. Berlandier wrote of many interesting aspects of life in Texas in the mid 1850's, such as foot long fresh water prawns from the rivers taken to open markets in San Antonio in wooden wheel barrows. Alas, abundant foot long fresh water prawns in Texas rivers can no longer be found. However, the botanical displays of these white spider lilies have persisted and can still be enjoyed today! Drive county roads in April, and you could find yourself in the middle of these spectacular beauties. We're excited to offer them to our customers!

You will receive small to medium bulbs in this special offer. The bulbs were harvested from our wet spring soil so be prepared for them to look this way. The best thing that you can do is to plant them as soon as possible in conditions similar to their native environment - somewhere wet right now that will be dry this summer. We know that this means digging in the mud, but you are doing this for the bulbs and for the beautiful stand that you will have in the future!

With 76 pants in a pack, I find them to be an excellent value for the price
Size: 2T-3T, Unit Count: 76
As a parent navigating the potty training journey, I can confidently say that Pull-Ups Boys' Skin Essentials Potty Training Pants have been a game changer for both my child and me. Here’s why I love them and what makes them an essential part of our potty training routine. Comfort and Fit: One of the standout features of these training pants is their soft and gentle fabric. The Skin Essentials line is designed to be hypoallergenic and includes ingredients like aloe to help soothe and protect my little one’s sensitive skin. The fit is great for my toddler, providing just the right amount of stretch and comfort, which is crucial during this transitional phase. My child can move freely, whether he’s playing, jumping, or running around. Absorbent and Reliable: The absorbency of these training pants is impressive. They hold up well during the day and help manage any accidents without causing a mess. I appreciate that they have a wetness indicator, which makes it easy to know when it's time for a change, helping to instill good habits as we continue potty training. Easy to Use: Pull-Ups are designed for independence, which is perfect for toddlers eager to take control of their potty training. They pull up and down like regular underwear, allowing my child to practice pulling them on and off, which builds confidence. Plus, the easy-open sides are a lifesaver for quick changes when we’re on the go. Fun Designs: Kids love fun and engaging designs, and these training pants deliver! The playful graphics featuring beloved characters make my son excited to wear them. This little touch has made a big difference in how he approaches potty training—he’s proud to wear them and feels like a “big boy.”

Very soft, high quality pull ups, but quite expensive
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 112
We really enjoy this brand of pull ups as they are the softest of all the pull ups and they have adjustable straps on each side of the pull up. Most brands just are pull ups with no bells and whistles, but these have Velcro straps on each side that allow you to adjust the size but more importantly for us, it allows us to change his pull up without having to take the pants fully off. This is really convenient when we’re in a hurry or out for the day. The absorbency is some of the best diapers I’ve ever used. I feel I’m a diaper connoisseur and have tried everything from expensive to cheaper generic brands and we continue to buy these because of the quality, the Velcro straps, and also because of the reduction in substances included in the product, which is quite important for us as my sons skin gets irritated easily. The one thing that’s a negative is that they are very expensive. Diapers in general are crazy expensive but these are more expensive than other brands. I usually buy these in bulk on Sam’s website but saw they were on sale and had a deal where you subscribe and get 25% off so I bought two big packs of 112 diapers and ended up spending around $82 for 224 diapers, which is a pretty good deal. I do wish they would sell these for cheaper and unfortunately don’t think I’ll be buying them from Amazon unless they have deals such as I described above. I do overall recommend them though as they are better than any other pull up brand we’ve ever used.

Gentle on skin, strong on progress
Size: 4T-5T, Unit Count: 60
These Pull-Ups are a win for both toddlers and tired parents. The Skin Essentials design feels ultra-soft and breathable—ideal for sensitive skin and long wear. I love that they’re dermatologist-approved and sized just right for 38–50 lbs, which adds comfort and confidence during potty training. The cute prints add kid-friendly flair, and the sides are stretchy but easy for little hands to pull down themselves—big bonus for growing independence. With 60 pants per box, it’s a solid value for families going through this milestone, even with the slightly higher price tag. At $39.09 and backed by Amazon’s Choice status and 4.7 stars across 600+ reviews, they’ve earned their spot in our routine. Bonus: over 1,000 purchases last month show we’re not the only ones loving them. If you’re potty training and want gentle, effective help for sensitive skin, these Pull-Ups check all the boxes.

Soft and flexible
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 16
My son suffers from sensitive skin and these new Pull-ups really reduce the red rash he gets on his hips from the diapering. They are easier for my son to pull up on his own. A high quality training diaper that doesn’t leak and is comfortable for hours.

Seem to run slightly larger
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 112
These are cute and my son loves the Buzz picture on them. I buy multiple different pull ups, and these have been great however I do think they run slightly larger. The quality is great, we haven’t had any leaks, and my son loves to wear them. He can easily pull them up and down himself.
