We love our new crinum lily!! It arrived so healthy and much bigger than we expected. It was so beautiful we ordered a second one. They are opening now - they are currently in pots but when the cooler weather arrives they will be added to our landscape. Thank you for the excellent quality!
These bulbs came with HUGE Stalks so perhaps they are more like bare roots? Anyway I put him in a pot and I could see immediate growth pushing through the center of the top. But then they just stopped growing so I pulled up an article and it says that is typical of this species to sprout and stop. It says it can take months or even a year for it to begin growth because they are shy growers and very sensitive to being moved. They are pricey at full price but they are really big!! About 4 in across and over a foot tall.
Slow growing but large plant.
I received 2 corms (1st order with HBF) and was delightfully surprised at the size of what was sent for the price listed. 2 VERY large mature divisions. Well worth the price (even if at full price) for the size received. Thank you HBF!
This plant is gorgeous ! The leaves will start to open up and it is this gorgeous purple. I have 2 of these. I think this is the perfect plant because I love plants for their leaves, but this beauty has Lily flowers in the middle!
