2. Lycoris rubra likes sunny and humid environment, but it can also tolerate semi-cloudy and dry environment, which is slightly cold-resistant, strong in vitality and not strict in soil requirements. If the soil is fertile and the drainage is good, the flowers will flourish. In addition, Manzhushahua likes to grow in the cemetery, so it is also called dead flower.

3. Flowering period: three days before the autumn equinox. In the garden, undergrowth flowers can be planted, flowers can be planted in clusters, and natural plants can be planted among rocks.
