NOT a Crinum ... ID please?

Hi Ken,

There are a lot of un-named Hymenocallis floating around in gardens in the
South. Maybe some of them have gotten to California! I call them all
"Hymenocallis latifolia" for want of a better name to put on them. I'm
sure Jim Bauml and some of the others can give you a better name for it
than I can.

This bulb was given as a 'bonus' for puchases made last year at the LA
Intercity Cactus and Succulent Show and Sale. It was labelled 'Crinum sp'
... but now that it is blooming, I dont think so. Can you Hymenocallis
experts ID?
