The term "Jersey lillie" refers to the flower commonly known as Amaryllis belladonna. However, there are several synonyms for this flower, including the Belladonna lily, Naked Lady, March lily, Surprise lily, and Resurrection lily. The name Belladonna lily is derived from the Latin word for beautiful lady due to its stunning trumpet-shaped blooms. On the other hand, Naked Lady and Surprise lily come from the fact that the flowers appear overnight without any foliage, surprising those who were not expecting it. The March lily name roots from the flower's typical blooming period in March, while the Resurrection lily is named so because it can seemingly come back to life after appearing to die.
