Jim - the yellow Crinum you refer to is not a form of Crinum flaccidum but Crinum luteolum. It is recognised as a separate species and can vary in colour from creamy yellow to buttercup yellow (rarely) depending on its source/local environment. It is a desert dwelling species growing in very remote and arid areas of South Australia. If there are no summer thunderstorms in the area it won't flower & may not even break dormancy in drought years. There are about a dozen different recognised species of Crinum native to Australia, most once all lumped under the one name - Crinum flaccidum.
