Crinium pedunculatum flowering today

The problem is that when you are young your life it is ruined by your parents. When you are older it is ruined by your children.

Distinctive flower Glen!
Crinums are fine flowers; I like to take pictures of them when it's been raining and title the pic 'Crinim in the Rain'.

Nothing that's been done can ever be changed.

Jack, I will try and take a picture of the plant itself tomorrow. It is monstrous thing. I think I put it in an inconvenient spot. But I may need a truck to move it now. It should be raining too.

Connie I agree with Debra's ID. They can be a bit invasive. I started out with one in a 4" pot, It now is a border along my fence. I really like it just saying...

Rose the garden is looking great. I believe the Huc is mainly grown for their foliage.
Glen love that Crinium.
The yellow flower self seed around here like crazy and it is the first plant that the Japanese Beetles flock to. I took a couple pics of it also.

These aren't blooms. They are even better! They will look good in the fall and winter when everything is drab.

Still in shop. All we know at this point is it shakes at high speeds and when my parents turned the air off it started clicking really loud. They were swamped today so weren't able to get to it but we're hoping tomorrow.

If you want good fall colors, try this combo. Plant Callicarpa dichotoma 'Issai' with Helianthus 'Happy Days' nearby. I love these two together. They come back every year.

This is Sedum 'Frosty Morn' with a friend.

Wow Clint! I love purple and yellow together. I'll have to check out the zones on these. I have the perfect place
