Spider lillies, also known as pop-up lillies,or Johnny-Jump-Ups, are members of the Amaryllidaceae and common to these latitudes. Normally seen inn the bright red variety, a couple of years ago I was lucky enough to find some of the pale pink variety. I found them yesterday near my redwood fence.
Beautiful, pale pink flowers, we call these "white" in these parts. Here's a close-up. Of course, you can click on the picture for a closer look.
I've got some blood-red ones under the white oak tree out front, but they haven't popped-up yet. If they do, you'll see pictures.
