Jacobean Bulb

Can you tell me about this bulb,I have just been given one.

Is this a name for the Aztec lily? (Sprekelia)

Hi goldenelm, it should do well in your climate, they can just about suvive here outside. Mine has just flowered and it lasted about 4 days, but what a flower.

They should be planted with the neck of the bulb just above the surface. In colder climates they can be put a little lower if outside, but normally, or in a pot, that is where they should be.

The images are lovely, looks like I have been given a little gem.
They are called the Aztec lily,I think they came from Mexico,I just wasn't sure about the care of the bulb.Thank you
