Perfection!
Fabulous, Tony! How long have you had them?
I have four, planted in buckets in early Spring. The bulbs were a decent size, but I'm wondering if/when they'll flower this year. They're very healthy and have plenty of growth, so I'm hoping for something either this year or next.
Those are lovely.
A couple of years ago someone on the forum offered some Crinum Bulbispermum Jumbo seed from the US, but I replied too late. Does anyone remember this or know of a source for jumbo Crinum.
Beautiful.

we have two large(ish) clumps of them in the front garden,had them for 5 years, trouble free, flowering well since we had them, the largest bulbs are the size of a coconut. Although the foliage looks a bit scruffyfor most of the year, the flowers are wonderful. (the O.H. says they remind her of tanoi speakers!) ;D ;D
I remember the Jumbo hybrids well; I had some, but kept them too damp and lost them. The person I got them from disappeared, and her website hasn't been operating for ages. Pity, she had a nice little nursery.
if you're ever down this way robert, come and dig some up!! ;)
I might take you up on that. I've got loads of the common powellii, but that's all.
