Here are a list of the ones I have tested here with mulching. I usually put bags of leaves around the plants and fill the circle with mulch to keep the trunks from freezing. I have in the past put 6 to 8 inches of leaves with good luck but lose the trunks and they return from the base. Many of these forms have different clones and I am sure their are hybrids of these on the market that maybe tougher. These have worked form me for the last 3 to 5 years.


Crinum powellii
Crinum bulbispermum
