Mike,
Busy day, I'll write more but I suggest you contact PBS member Tony Avent of Plant Delights Nursery for crinums and other interesting stuff. His availability varies but last I looked he was under $30 for everything he had. I can give you a few things and sell a few but you need to have an idea what you're collecting - commercial hybrids, new hybrids, primary hybrids, species, weedy clumpers or solitary specimens.

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

scape and random red pinstripes of lavranii.
