When i moved into my apartment 3 years ago this lily was here, but planted in clay. It would send up foliage, but not bloom. This spring i dug it up, and did it every bloom... it's been blooming for three weeks now. There were numerous babies, so i have had many gorgous flowers from her. Any hoo, can anyone help me id this beauty? p.s the foliage is very long, and straplike.
It says Crinum to me. But I'm no expert.
beautiful.
Cheri'
isn't she pretty... and a surprise
It's beautiful
That's gorgeous! Before I enlarged the pic I thought it was going to be a daylily with that foliage. If you don't get it ID'd here, why don't you try the bulb forum? I'd sure like to know what it is ~
