First Rain Lily of the Season!

This morning I was so excited to see my first Rain Lily flower!

My neighbor gave me some plants a few years ago. They are now
spreading to different areas in the front yard.

Ne'er heard of them. Are they a variety of regular lily? I can't put my finger on it, but something's different about the flower, though.

Here is an informational website on them.

Here is a blog that mentions Pink Rain Lilies. And she has them in a neat "sunset" color too.
Mine are a darker pink than the ones she has...

So pretty Rebbetzin! I use to have rain lilies, and I loved that they would disappear, I would forget about them and all of a sudden, there they were- blooming!
