Crinum digweedii Stars and Stripes
Crinum ‘Stars and Stripes’ is a 1977 Thad Howard introduction that makes a compact clump to 3’tall x 4′ wide. The narrow pleated, glossy green foliage on this Crinum scabrum x Crinum erubescens hybrid gives rise, starting in late July and reblooming into mid-October (NC) with sturdy 3′ stalks of 8-10 large, stunning fragrant flowers with white petals and dramatic red stripes down the center. In appearance, it resembles Crinum scabrum but has more hardiness. For overall star power, Crinum ‘Stars and Stripes’ is one of the best crinums we have grown.
