Description: DESCRIPTION: We grow over 1000 varieties of crinum including about 350 of our own hybrids. This is one of many red forms. Clawed is similar to Ellen Bosanquet, but does not offset quite as fast. The name clawed comes from the little "claws" that are on the flower petal tips. We have recorded as many as 19 flowers on 30" tall scapes. Our largest bulb was measured at 6" in diameter. Ours have never set seed, but the pollen might be semi-fertile if used on other seed producing crinum. The flowers are sweetly fragrant and bloom mid-May through July. They will form large, beautiful clumps if left undisturbed for many years. This is being offered on EBay for the first time in December 2013. BACKGROUND: This bulb came from a Georgia nursery in 2001. The hybridizer is most likely Patrick Malcolm. We are probably the only distributor now of this bulb and quantities are very limited. GROWING CONDITIONS: This is a semi-hardy and easy to grow bulb requiring no special care. It tolerates a wide range of soils and cool temperatures, at least to zone 7. They should do best planted in the ground in full sun or partial shade, but they will also make excellent container plants. They can survive nicely out of the ground for very extended periods if allowed to dry. DESCRIPTION OF ITEM FOR BID: You are bidding on ONE Jumbo, blooming-size bulb at least 6 years old and about 3+" in diameter which should bloom within 1 year. You can bid on 1 or more bulbs, depending on how many are available. Bulbs will be freshly dug, shipped bare root and with leaves March-November. In the winter months the leaves may be absent.
