Beth, you are right. CLIVEA! After I said that about WFF and sent the
message, I thought "Uh-oh, those orange things aren't CRINUMS, they're
something else." But it was too late. I apologize for my momentary
confusion.
To make up for it, I checked my copy of Felder and Rushing, PASSALONG
PLANTS. They say Crinums never die, and that many forgotten varieties from
1880-1920 are still blooming at abandoned homesites around the south.
