Mike.
I'm not Tim and I don't live in San Diego, but I have always associated Crinum xPowellii with California. Take a look at some images on the web, or our wiki. That may be the crinum you saw at that open house. Crinum xPowellii is available from several commercial vendors.

Hey Tim,
Fellow PBS member and have seen your crinum posts from time to time. I live
in San Diego and never thought much about these bulbs. Recently helped a
realtor do an open house( I’m a mortgage lender).
The owners had these stately tall pink bloom with strap leaves.
I asked what they were...crinum of course. The previous owner was a
horticulturist at the SD Zoo.
She brought them from there.
So looking on the Internet, seems hard to find, expensive and I’m not sure
what is healthy or not?
Any idea what are good outlets for purchase?
Thanks,
Mike
