Marcelle's Crinums
Sales and Notes from Marcelle Sheppard
Crinum 'White Queen'
Luther Burbank produced this amazingly beautiful plant. The flowers are pure white and have exquisitely recurved petals; the parents are C. powellii 'Alba' and C. macowanii. Each scape produces many flowers, but the flowers can be short-lived, especially in hot sun; however, the numerous flowers open over a week or two. Fully open flowers are pendant, and astonishing in contrast to the buds which emerge pointed upwards only to hang down as they open.
