Football Lily (Scadoxus multiflorus), also called African Blood Lily or Powderpuff Lily, produces one of the most spectacular floral displays in the plant world: a massive, spherical umbel up to 10 inches across, composed of hundreds of tiny, scarlet-red flowers with prominent yellow stamens. Blooming in late spring to summer, it's a stunning container specimen for shaded patios.
