The eucharis blooms beautifully in the spring, filling the garden with its lovely scent.
Eucharis is derived from the Greek "eu" (meaning good or well) and "charis" (meaning grace or favor). The word combines these elements to convey the idea of being well-favored or gracious.
Think of 'good' ('eu') and 'grace' ('charis') together, which helps you remember that 'eucharis' refers to something that is well-favored or gracious.
