This Crinum is very special to me. I received my start from a friend years ago. Her Dad had grown it when she was young and she is now in her early seventies. Her Dad called it a milk and wine lily but it is not the same one we now know by that name.
Unlike the other Crinums, this one blooms in August and has just opened up. It is fragrant and smells wonderful.
This was just opening last night.
These are closeups of the delicate colors of the bloom which opened this morning.
The blooms are in clusters of four. These are photos of the plant itself.
If there is no ID to be had, I am o.k. with it. This is a plant I love...
