Re: crinum lily

Definitely like an eucomis...and they multiply just as quickly.

For the past 3 years I've grown crinum in a container here in Zone 5 
which spends the summers outside on the deck and is brought in to spend 
the winter in an unheated basement.  I cut it back and forget about it 
till, just like the eucomis, sprouting shoots remind me to take it 
outside when the weather warms up.

Easy.
