The Beauty Behind Small Rain Lily

Nov 5, 2008

In Indonesian, this flower is known as bawang sebrang or bunga coklat (cocoa flower in English) . Though named as bunga coklat or cacao flower, this little flower doesn’t have anything to do with cacao. Due to its beautiful colorful flowers, the cacao flower is often used for decoration

Rain Lily or Bawang Sebrang (Zephyranthes candida Herb.)

In English, this species is called the Rain Lily (Zephyranthes candida Herb.). The Rain Lily originally comes from Chile and Brazil. It has a long and thin leaf that flopping from the corm located in ground.

Rain lily is a small tropics terna, with the height only up to 30 cm.

The leaf is curved and slippery, and the flower has a single handle in single white colour and dice, and formed like funnel that facing upward. Perhaps that is the reason why this flower is called ‘ lily’ :)
