An extraordinary plant native to southern Africa. Starting as early as June, the large, fragrant flowers appear in delicate shades of pink and white, floating elegantly above the long, arching foliage. Despite its exotic appearance, this impressive plant blends surprisingly harmoniously into perennial plantings.
Over the years, Crinum bulbispermum develops into a stately and long-lived plant. In a sunny, sheltered location, it thrives reliably and becomes more beautiful with each passing year. Its long, strap-shaped leaves form an attractive clump that adds texture to the planting even outside of the flowering season.
The exceptionally large seeds that form after flowering are a real eye-catcher. They add to the plant’s ornamental value well into the fall and highlight its unique character.
