When you receive your seeds/bulbs you will find, included with them, a

From an anonymous donor:
1. Small bulbs of Crinum americanum, red stemmed cultivar
2. Small bulbs of Crinum oliganthum
From Mary Sue Ittner:
Seed (Limited quantities of some of these):
3. Nerine angustifolia--summer rainfall, almost evergreen in cultivation,
blooms in fall
4. Nerine platypetala--summer rainfall, almost evergreen in cultivation,
blooms in fall
5. Nerine undulata--from plants named Nerine flexuosa x Nerine undulata, but
these are both considered N. undulata now. This is one of the only species
I can get to bloom for me in the ground in my Mediterranean climate.
Although from a summer rainfall area, it does fine with winter rainfall and
sometimes is deciduous in the summer. Blooms in fall.
Although all these species are illustrated on the wiki, I've recently added
photos of blooms on my plants this fall.
