Last year, I asked about a Crinum that Costco was selling among their
spring-planted bulbs. Based on the photo on the bag, consensus seemed to
be that it was probably Crinum xdigweedii.

One of three bulbs that I purchased has bloomed. I am sure you are shocked
(shocked!) to hear that it doesn't match what was pictured on the bag.
Here's what it looks like.

Buds are very dark purple. Flowers are lighter, but definitely purple, not
pink.

Any thoughts? It is perhaps Crinum 'Ellen Bosanquet'?
