Does someone know what kind of Crinum this is? It isn’t a frost hardy Asiaticum here. It does back every year.

That’s it!! Thank you! 
 

It was given to me a couple years ago by the owner of a nursery right outside of Folkston, Ga, on US 1. They’re based out if Daytona and Homeland, and sale a lot of tropicals/palms they grow from those two areas. It was on the trash pile and he was going to throw it away. So I took it, not knowing exactly what kind of Crinum it was. 
 

This is its 2nd summer in the ground and looks to be growing quite fast. And, ironically, I have it in an area that stays really moist under the shade of a old, huge magnolia half the day.

I'd have grabbed them too if i saw someone trying to toss them out.. Is a great, wayy under-used and adaptable Crimum. For whatever reason, some selections of it aren't as fragrant as others though.
