Amazon Lily - Eucharis amazonica
"Let us dance in the sun, wearing wild flowers in our hair."
~Susan Polis Schutz
Common Names | Amazon Lily
Botanical Name | Eucharis amazonica
Family | Amaryllidaceae
Basal leaves are long-elliptic, wavy and dark green. In late summer, smooth stems bear fragrant, white flowers, arranged in umbels of up to eight, with stamens protruding. Each daffodil-like flower has six spreading sepals arranged in two rows, with the outer being longer and narrower than in inner ones, and six stamens that are fused into a cup.
