Dear Friends, I was in a large pet Warehouse store today on another errand, when I saw a shelf of Aquarium plants so had to stop. There were bulbs labelled "Onon Plant - Crinum thaianum". They were $ 4 or 5 each. But what were they and will any Crinum tolerate growing submerged? It sort of looked like C. americanum, but not enough. Bulbs were about 1 inch in diameter. Leaves thick and slightly twisted. I wouldn't even bet that it is a Crinum. It is not on the PBS wiki and although there are lots of Google 'hits', none answer a few basic questions. So what do our Crinum experts have to guess? Look at this page and tell me: http://floridaaquatic.com/aquarium_plant_crinum_th… Of course the very name "thaianum" sounds phoney and probably just means some Thai nursery is the source.
