Hi Steve! All Hymenocallis grow from evergreen or deciduous bulbs.

We have a naturalized Spider Lily, Hymenocallis pedalis in Hawai'i that grows from an evergreen bulb. As it matures it makes offsets on the ground and produces offsets on the flower stalks after flowering. It fills in the ground around it with new plants and travels as the flower stalks fall over. Eventually it forms dense clumps with no intruders. It can be aggressive but makes weed free patches with no help from the gardener and is impressive as the patch blooms all at once!
This patch is about 3 ft. tall.
