Yes, with rain the dormant buds sprout giving forth lovely pink flowers. I have them in my garden. Lovely image and a beautiful haiku.

Mine are trying to bloom again after this last rain. We had a slight drought here with about either 4 to 6 weeks with no rain and they went dormant. They add so much beauty to the landscape. Thanks for the visit. Sara

Yes, they do. The blossoms the day after a rain are wonderful. Thanks for the visit. Sara

Yes, Victor, I do enjoy lilies. I have a few Irises, daylilies, canon, Asiatic lilies, Calla lilies, and the rain lilies. Each one has its own unique characteristics. Thanks for the visit. Sara

Way to go, Sara, they sure would love it here in Perth now, an abundant of rain today. Love the haiku.

Harry, Rain brings on the blossoms. I watered them but it doesn't work as well as the water from above. They are so beautiful when in blossom. I don't know what temperatures they like but apparently only summer is blooming time. Thanks for the visit. Sara
