Re: crinum lily

**C* U* <c*@sbcglobal.net>**

Surely it would be too big to grow in the house. Think it would have to be
dormant in the basement. The person who spoke about crinums in the New
Plants seminar said there is now a crinum lily that has shown itself hardy
in St. Louis. He brought a plant to his presentation and it was around 5
feet tall.
