Note to myself — rain lilies

For the past week, I've been harvesting LOTS of rain lily seeds from neighbor JJ's yard. She has a huge population of them in her fenced back yard and has kindly given me free rein in picking them. FUN, FUN, FUN! I'm spreading the seeds mostly in The Meadow. To be precise, these are Brazos rain-lilies (Zephyranthes chlorosolen), formerly known as evening rain lily (Cooperia drummondii). 
 
Note: We also have another rain lily species, which has a larger bloom: Drummond's rain lily (Zephyranthes drummondii), formerly known as Hill Country rain lily (Cooperia pedunculata).
