Oxblood Lilies (Rhodophiala bifida)

My oxblood lilies are blooming now. They are autumn-blooming bulbs from South America, close relatives of rain lilies and amaryllis. This is the heirloom Texas form that is vigorous and perennial (in Texas at least). I'm not sure how well they will do in Alabama. I don't see any reason why they would do poorly, but then again there's probably a reason why they naturalize in Texas but are nowhere to be seen in Alabama (as far as I know).

All of these photos are with Kodak Portra 400 film and Hasselblad 500C/M camera
