Don't give up on the lycoris. They don't like to be moved and often will just sit for a year or too before they do anything. My neighbour gave me 2 whole buckets of them. Honest 2 buckets!!!! She had cleared out a bed and had them sitting in her garage. My husband was making nasty remarks till I told him if I'd bought them they would be $6 a piece minimum. He got out and helped me plant them. Anyway, they didn't do anything for 2 years then whamm this fall the whole bed was filled with them and the dumb things had multiplied! I had 2 and 3 stalks of flowers from each bulb coming up. Don't be discouraged.
