Notes
'Album' Natal lily (Crinum moorei 'Album') is a bulb for borders, cutting gardens, and fragrant plantings. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun. In early summer, tall spikes of white, goblet-shaped flowers rise above a large clump of wide, glossy green leaves. The blooms are fragrant and have blackish filaments and pollen that stand out against the petals.
Pairs well with Society garlic, Tuberose, and Gypsy rose.
