Crinum americanum 'Robustum'

Crinum 'Brilliant Pink' C. macowanii hybrid

Crinum 'Champagne' Hybrids

Crinum ‘Bayou Traveler’
(a cross between C. flaccidum and C. oliganthum)

This cross produced a great plant, sort of like a beefed up C. oliganthum; Marcelle selected a clone and has recently named it 'Bayou Traveler'.  The plants are about twice as large as regular C. oliganthum (i.e., 'West Indies Mini'), and they are much more prolific growers. 

Crinum 'Marcelle Sheppard'

This miniature plant is a cross between C. oliganthum and Rose City Schoolhouse C. scabrum No. 1.  The plant is not as small as C. oliganthum, but it is small as Crinum hybrids go.  Mr. Works reports that the foliage is 4-8 inches long and light in color, more like the color of C. scabrum than C. oliganthum. 

Crinum 'Mermaid' 

Crinum x herbertii, 'Milk and Wine'

Crinum procerum 'Bride's Bouquet'

Produces an incredibly heavy bloom on established plants. It seldom sets seed. Brides Bouquet was grown by Marcelle from a seed collected at the Japanese Embassy in Hawaii by Mr. Hannibal.

Crinum 'Stars and Stripes'

The plant was created by Thad Howard, a cross between C. scabrum and C. erubescens.  It has excellent deep red coloration on clear white petals. 

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.
