Cold-Hardy Crinum Collection

$82.00

We’ve shared plants with botanical gardens and plant collectors all over the country. From those reports, we have put together this collection of amazingly hardy lilies. It’s based on records and letters from excellent gardeners in Denver, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, and Bowling Green in Ohio.

This is a curated collection of three distinctive crinum lilies suitable for gardens in Zone 6B. Order and plant in the spring or very early summer.
