Crinum Lily is an aquatic plant commonly seen on rocky, shallow river beds. It grows to 0.5-1 m tall, and can easily bloom under-water. Bulb is 5-8 cm, ovoid with 5-15 cm long cylindrical neck. Leaves are 6-8 in number, 2-3 ft long, about 3 cm wide, dark green in color. Flowers arise in an umbel of 6-12 atop a leafless scape, 40-75 cm tall. There are two lance-shaped white bracts, opening and fragrant at night. Flower tube is 6-8 cm, slender. Six petals are narrow, spreading, 6-8 cm long. The six stamens, 4-6 cm long, have red filaments. Crinum lilies (often misspelled “crinium”) are truly classic southern pass-along, summer-flowering sun-loving perennial bulbs. Crinum lily cultivars have thrived for hundreds of years at abandoned home sites where other bulbs like daffodils have long ago turned up their toes. Crinums are extremely adaptable amaryllids. either in dry or in boggy soils. Crinums are tough, low maintenance bulbs which make them perfect for rain gardens, and although drought-tolerant, crinums bloom more if well-watered. Think of crinum bulbs as a horticultural IRA for your grandkids to remember you by. Unfortunately, you don’t often see a wide variety of crinum lilies for sale. We currently grow over 200 different crinum selections and evaluate them to decide which to offer. The giant clumps of bold, crinum lily foliage make an imposing architectural statement in the garden. In late spring and summer, crinum lily clumps are topped with an array of very large red-to-pink-to-white flowers…often fragrant. We like to grow crinum alongside agave, dahlia, malvaviscus, and a variety of ornamental grasses. Most crinums are very tolerant of rich, moist soils, and reach flowering size very quickly when given those garden conditions in full sun. A few people call crinum the spider lily. Note that there is more than one plant that goes by the name spider lily. In addition to Crinum, Hymenocallis is also called white spider lily,

Water: Keep soil moist throughout the growing season.
Temperature: 20°C
Fertilizer: Apply any organic fertilizer.
Harvesting: After the amaryllis has stopped flowering, it can be made to flower again. Cut the old flowers from the stem after flowering, and when the stem starts to sag, cut it back to the top of the bulb. Continue to water and fertilize as normal all summer, or for at least 5-6 months, allowing the leaves to fully develop and grow. When the leaves begin to yellow, which normally occurs in the early fall, cut the leaves back to about 2 inches from the top of the bulb and remove the bulb from the soil. Clean the bulb and place it in a cool (40-50 deg. F), dark place such as the crisper of your refrigerator for a minimum of 6 weeks. Caution: Do not store amaryllis bulbs in a refrigerator that contains apples, this will sterilize the bulbs. Store the bulbs for a minimum of 6 weeks.
Care:
- Once the plant is flowering, continue the watering and keep it out of direct sunlight, and slightly cooler (10-15°C), but as light as possible to promote a longer flower life.
- Each individual flower should last two or even three weeks before they brown.
- As each one fades, cut it off at the top of the stalk and then when the whole stalk is over and begins to sag, carefully cut it off just above the bulb nose.
- After flowering you can keep them from one year to the next.
- Feeding needs to continue and you want to water too, until the leaves begin to yellow in late summer/early autumn.
- At this stage, cut the leaves back to about 6cm (2½in) from the top of the bulb and remove it from the pot.
- Keep the bulb cool (5-10°C) and dark, to give it a dormant period for 8 weeks before you can encourage it to come into leaf and flower again When the temperature in your greenhouse falls to below 10C, bring them into the warmth and begin gentle watering again and your bulb will re-shoot.

- These little bulbs will take two years before producing their first flower, but it will be a proud moment when they do.
