Lycoris radiata, known as the red spider lily, red magic lily, or equinox flower. First time blooming in my yard. Originally from China, Korea, and Nepal, it was introduced into Japan and from there to the United States and elsewhere. These were often planted on graves and blooms appear in early fall in many historic Victorian era cemeteries like Elmwood cemetery in Norfolk Virginia. This use led to another common name, the resurrection lily. #spiderlily #historiccemeteries #nightphotography (at Kempsville, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUVTJyRFZP6/?utm_medium=tumblr
