Crinum moorei (Natal Lily)


Crinum moorei is a bulbous perennial native to eastern South Africa, from the Eastern Cape to KwaZulu-Natal. Broad strap-shaped leaves arch away from the bulb. A tall stalk carries a rounded cluster of fragrant flowers, which are white to pink. Each flower opens from a long tube into a broad funnel, with curved stamens visible inside. Photographed in Colombia.
