Kathy on Jun 27, 2014Look up Crinum Lily. I have some that I was allowed to dig up from and an old home built in the 1800's.Helpful Reply

Terri Jones on Jun 27, 2014Kathy, I think you hit the nail on the head. These have the very same color, stem and leaves of the Crinum Lily. I believe these to be a Crinum Lily instead of Amaryllis. The Amaryllis is very close but not quite the same leaves and never could find the exact color as these. First picture I looked up is exactly like these. Thank you Kathy!!Helpful Reply
