Thanks, Wim, Jim and PeterT :) It is said that L. 'Blue Pearl' parentage is L. sprengeri x L. chinensis or L. longituba. I'm a Lycoris begginer so you'll find more details about L. 'Blue Pearl' here.

Tatsuo,
that's a wonderful website!  :o I'd not realised there were so many incredible Lycoris hybrids!
Just beautiful, thanks! Your pics are great, too.
cheers

It's a real pleasure to look at all your plants pics. I was not very interested in Lycoris but now I'm  discovering all these forms I become a little envious  ::)  :D Thank you all

That makes me wish x-houdyshelii did better here.  In my garden, it survives but has never bloomed.  The only Lycoris still in bloom here are a couple caldwellii and the 'Sky Over Sky'.

I was reading this document which suggests that Lycoris aurea will not flower if it is kept too long in growth,  without a summer rest.
