Actually, gardeners with small or large planting areas alike will love these lovely little lilies.
Rain lilies are at their best being planted amidst established plants, filling in bare spots here and there.
Their blooming blitzes are another of their most charming features, alone enough to assure their growing popularity.
And their colorful star-like flowers will be especially welcome in late summer when other flowers are fading.
For all this, they require little in return.
Spectacular effects can be achieved when rain lilies are used in mass plantings.
Remember that these little lilies will not survive in soggy soil whether naturalized or not.
They do well when planted in raised beds or compost-enriched older borders.
Rain lilies thrive on regular summer watering but avoid over-watering them.
Otherwise you may want to enjoy them where they are.
This will lessen the effect of their having been removed from the ground.
Besides the bulbs need to rest for a few months before beginning the next growing cycle anyway.
