Great pics Robert--I'd say that is definitely not JC Harvey which makes me suspect as to the second one too. Quite frankly I will not be greatly disappointed. I don't have room for another large crinum unless its one I REALLY want--and JC Harvey wasn't on my list. I'm going to pluck that other one out of the pot and put it in the ground with its about to bloom buddy.Whatever it is, its older than the hills. I'll dmail you a pic when it blooms--maybe you might have some idea which one it is. And they definitely aren't virused, as you would suspect an amaryllis of that age to be.

Its definitely not any of the multitude of the Hymenocallus I have. I am trying to collect some of the small crinum species. I like those, they are easy to dig!

All I can say is it sure don't look like Crinum lugardiae, Crinum amaricanum, or Carnival. And definitely not amarcrinum as I have way too many of those. And that's what I'm down to as far as crinums go except--

it sure sure don't look like Ellen either. ;)
