Ratko’s collections of a dwarf form of this seldom encountered bulb branched inflorescences bear numerous 1 ½” starry white flowers above grassy tufts of foliage, these are restricted to serpentine in the wild and will tolerate some shade.

A dwarf late summer blooming Corsican endemic, it is similar to the more common European Colchicum alpinum, but with shorter broader leaves.

A showy easy plant, we raised these from seeds, typical rose purple flowers in autumn.

One of the hardiest crinums, a hybrid between Crinum bulbispermum x Crinum moorei, 1.5m scapes bear umbels of fragrant white Amaryllis flowers.

All of these came from Warren Stoutmeyer but the labeling was a bit on the cryptic side, I suspect this is a separate clone from the above.
