This crinum owes its popularity to plant enthusiast Marcelle Sheppard who noticed the difference in this type of Milk and Wine Crinum and used her influence in the plant world to bring it to light. Many wish they knew the story behind the breeding of this plant, however, we do know that it remains one of the most tough and elegant summer-blooming crinums.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003eThis bulb is Jumbo size.

The lily-like white blooms usually appear in April, and as long as the bulb stays damp, it will continue to produce flowers through September. Each petal is several inches long that bend outward like a star showing their pinkish stamens. Each stalk produces 2-6 blooms which can be cut off and used indoors if desired, and the white blooms cluster to create a softball-size clump.

It can be planted near a water feature or rain garden to naturally get the moisture that it needs. Drying out can stress this bulb.
