Rain Lily Apsara

About this plant

A delicate ballet dancer's skirt, unfurling in layers of pristine white. This elegant bloom features six broad, gently recurved outer petals of pure white, each subtly veined, creating a soft luminosity. Nestled within, a generous second whorl of narrower petals radiates outward from the centre, painted in the softest blush pink that deepens towards the throat. The overall effect is a graceful, multi-layered form, far removed from a simple single. A hint of pale green can be glimpsed at the very heart, complementing the gentle colours. This variety thrives in dappled light, holding its refined shape beautifully in a terracotta pot on a shaded verandah, offering repeated flushes of bloom after the monsoon rains.
