My  Crinum  Jagus has at least 10 flower spikes , the most ever since I planted it 3 years ago  . Not only is this particular variety of Crinum especially beautiful but it is also highly fragrant.  Seems to be somewhat rare??

Very nice Mike, Spicy, Vanilla scented flowers are awesome. 

Agree, for some reason, this is one of the less common ..and harder to find of the Crinum species. Had some myself but don't tolerate the heat / dry air well here during the summer, at least in pots.  Would likely be easier in a shady spot that gets regular moisture.  Other than that, would recommend these to anyone in 9b and up.. Looking around yesterday, a little surprised how expensive even smallish bulbs can be online.  

Also have one of the Crinum cultivars called "Milk and Wine"  Still to young for flower yet but these actually survive the summer here in my shade house.
