Crinum bulbispermum

The genus Crinum, in the Amaryllis Family, is widely distributed from Africa to the Pacific. Crinum bulbispermum is one of the African species, native to South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland. Its long narrow leaves curl outward, and it has multiple bouts of flowering in late spring and summer. It takes its name from its very large seeds, which look like small bulbs. Although often found in wet places, it has fairly good drought tolerance.
