The Lycoris incarnata is often called "Peppermint Spider Lily." As soon as you see the bloom, you know why. The blooms look like peppermint sticks where a deep pink stripe runs down the middle of each white petal. These lovely blooms are fascinating and unique. They work best in zones 5b-8a.

How they bloom: Lycoris incarnata "Peppermint Spider Lily" bulbs bloom differently than most flowers. Now is a perfect time to plant these bulbs. These bulbs need 1-2 years after they are planted before presenting blooms. Your bulbs are developing a strong root system right now to support future foliage and eventually blooms. You might see the foliage this February - May, but don't be concerned if you don't. Most people still expect to see something growing during the summer months. You won't see anything. These bulbs are dormant in the summer. After 1-2 years, the flowers suddenly appear with the first later summer and early fall rains. One day there is nothing growing and then suddenly you have a surprise, a fully blooming flower! This bulb acts very similarly to red spider lilies, yellow spider lilies, and schoolhouse lilies. Simply put, they bloom in the fall and then have foliage for the winter.

Foliage: Let's talk foliage for a moment. The "Peppermint Spider Lily" foliage is a lovely green, and will look great by itself in the spring or mixed in with spring blooms. We know that we all want to see the beautiful unusual blooms in the late summer, but the foliage is very important. The foliage is what allows the bulb to grow and multiply. Many people get very concerned if they don't see the bloom the first year that they plant it and believe that maybe the bulb isn't any good. A good rule for perennial bulbs....if the bulb is firm when you plant it, it is healthy and will eventually come up. The foliage is what you watch for since the bulbs aren't going to bloom for 1-2 years. The foliage will grow during the winter months, February - May, so be sure to plant the bulbs where they will receive at least 6+ hours of winter sun. Even if the foliage gets hit by a winter cold snap, it will have taken in nutrients for months! Always allow the foliage to die down naturally and don't cut it off. If you cut it, you are killing the bulb. Once the foliage is completely dead which is usually around the beginning of May, this area can be mowed. Remember, it takes a lot of energy for the bulb to push that bloom up out of the ground and open wide. The more time the bulbs can take in nutrients, the more energy they will have for that fall bloom.

Just a thought...if it looks like you are going to have a cold snap and want to protect your foliage, you might consider covering it with a bucket and then removing the bucket once the daytime temperatures warm up.

Blooms: When talking about color, these unique blooms have been compared to the crinum "Milk and Wine" blooms. Each petal is white with a dark pink stripe running down the center. The blooms will appear late August or early September on a naked stalk like the other Lycoris. In late summer, each bulb sends up an 16-20 inch stem that holds several blooms. Each stalk will hold 6-8 frilly-edged blooms. It may take 1-2 years before the blooms appear, but the show it produces in late summer is spectacular. Once established in your garden they are there for a lifetime! These blooms need water to bloom. They respond to the late summer rains well, but if there is a hard drought, be sure to begin watering the area around the beginning of August to help the bulbs have enough energy to bloom. A naked stalk will rise quickly and a few days later peppermint-colored blooms will appear.

Plant: Don't plant the bulb too deep. You will plant the bulbs 2-3 times deep the height of the bulb (so if your bulb is 1" tall, then you will plant it 2-3 inches deep). Because they bloom on a naked stalk, they look better when planted in groups. You can plant the bulbs close together (2-4 inches apart) to make the blooms look more natural or spread the bulbs out and allow 6-8 inches in between each bulb. The area will look sparse the first couple of years that the blooms come up, but the bulbs will multiply and fill in several years after that.

Lycoris bulbs really do well in any type of soil except full clay. They thrive in soil that has plenty of organic material mixed in but they do not require fertilizer. Newly planted bulbs would actually be harmed by exposure to fertilizer, so if you are going to apply nutrients, limit the application to established plants when the plants are producing their green leafy foliage during the winter. After planting the bulbs, water the soil thoroughly. Damp soil is ok, as long as the bulbs are in a spot where they will receive plenty of winter sun and the foliage is allowed to die down naturally in the spring. Standing water is not good. Once the summer season starts these bulbs will do best in soil that dries out a bit, as this facilitates its entry into the dormant stage when the leaves die back. This period is followed by its blooming season when it will reward daily watering with long-lasting blooms. Too much moisture in the soil will lead to the bulbs rotting.

**The following picture is of Lycoris squamigera, Naked Ladies, which are in the same family, but it gives you ideas on how you can plant them.

Sun Requirements: The single most important thing about landscaping with Lycoris is the sun. They need at least 6+hours of WINTER sun. That means about 6-8 hours of sunlight during the winter months - they do great with full winter sun. Because they are dormant during the summer, the amount of summer sun doesn't matter; however, Lycoris incarnata blooms will last a little longer and tend to appear a little earlier when they bloom in the summer shade. They fade more quickly when in full hot summer sun.

The Lycoris all have the same requirements of the sun. If you look at the photo above of the Lycoris squamigera "Naked Lady" blooms, you will see that they are in the shade of the trees. You can be sure that most, if not all, of those trees, will lose their leaves in the winter when the greenery needs sunlight. Lycoris put on their foliage during the winter (February - April) and that is when it takes in the nutrients it needs to produce the blooms in September. The winter foliage soaks up sun energy during winter as it prepares for summer dormancy. The foliage normally completely dies down around May.

Bulbs to use with Lycoris: There are an assortment of perennial flower bulbs that go well with Lycoris blooms. When the bloom appears in late August or early September, it will look great with rain lilies and other spider lilies. The foliage makes a great backdrop for spring bloomers like Narcissus Jonquils, campernelles, twin sisters, and snowflakes.

Perfect for ROG Ally X
Want to hook up a keyboard, mouse, headset, AND external display to a ROG Ally X? This will do it and it only takes up one (USB4) port on the Ally X. Oh, and it will also provide enough power to charge the Ally and still have juice for all the other ports. Update: I’ve now tried a few USB4 hubs because I also want Ethernet which this doesn’t have. Unfortunately I’ve discovered that most of them seem to overheat after awhile and I loose connectivity on some of the ports (for whatever reason it’s always the type A ports on the hubs that fail). After letting them cool down, the other USB hubs work again, but it’s still frustrating. This StarTech hub is the only one that works for hours. It’s a little bulkier than other hubs I’ve tried, but that’s probably because it needs to be that way for proper heat dissipation?? Anyway, I wish it had a few more ports (including Ethernet), but for reliability this thing is the best I’ve found.

The Best!
This thing is amazing! Worked right out of the box. No drivers to install, no confusion, just plug and go. I'm using this hub to connect a mouse, a keyboard, and a monitor to my 2025 MacBook Air (M4). Before buying this I bought a complicated, powered hub for 2x the price and wasted multiple hours trying to get the $%^&(*& thing to work, which it never did. If you want to run a display and a few peripherals, this Startech hub is the absolute best bang for your buck.

Quality Control Issues
I want to like this dock, I really do. I purchased it with the intention of using it as a hub for my phone + usb-c external display. The pass-through charging never worked on this dock. Tried multiple cords and tested the dock with nothing plugged into any of the USB ports -- all of the power disappears somewhere onto the hub and the actual charge rate on my phone slows to a trickle. With nothing connected, it estimates >24hrs to charge from 30% to full. The plus side is that the usb ports do work, though the usb-c display went from 100% reliability to <50% within a few months of purchase. Extremely frustrating.

This is the one, buy it for DeX!
Looking for a compact USB hub to connect your laptop or Samsung DeX capable device? Buy this one! I've tried multiple similar items from name brands, and they work fine as a USB and port hub, but this one is able to support power delivery and display data through a single (capable) USB-c cable. I assume because it is noted to be capable of some combo of USB 3.2, PD 3.0 pass through and DP 1.4 alt mode. I'm not quite sure which one(s) make it possible, but it works for an HP Spectre laptop and Galaxy phone. Only improvement suggestion is to add an additional 10gb capable USB-C port in place of the three USB-A ports, but that's being super picky. Thanks StarTech for building another unique solution for connectivity challenges.

Usb-c passthrough started failing about a year into ownership.
This had the potential to be the perfect accessory for my M4 MacBook Air. It is very difficult to find dongles like this that support display passthrough via usb-c (meaning that if you have a usb-c display you can connect it to this and use the display). When it did work, I was able to power a triple monitor setup with my 2 port Macbook Air (with one display being driven by a displaylink adapter). If this product had continued to work as advertised, is would be a 5 star review. But after maybe a year of VERY sporadic use (I use this maybe once a week because my MacBook Air is not often docked) the usb-c passthrough is already failing. On a display I use every day with a different machine (a 16" MBP that has enough ports to not need any adapters) and the display and cable work perfectly fine there so I can only assume that it is this specific adapter which is failing. If I insert the connector several times, sometimes I can get it to work but my success rate just keeps dropping. There was no other reason to spend this much on an adapter that without usb-c passthrough offers just 3 usb-a ports like most much cheaper adapters. So to say I am disappointed is an understatement.
