This 1950s Grace Hinshaw cross of Crinum 'Cecil Houdyshel' x Crinum 'Ellen Bosanquet' makes a clump of 3. 5' long, heavily channeled glaucous green leaves, topped starting in mid May and into early fall with 3. 5' tall flower stalks each holding up to 12 flowers. The flowers open blush pink with faint striping, but age to an amazing raspberry red center with light pink tips
