Crinum Carolina Beauty Evergreen Perennials Our offering of Aspidistra carnosaThis old pass along Southern hybrid is probably a cross between our native Crinum americanum and Crinum bulbispermum. The narrow glossy leaves form large bulbs that multiply like little rabbits. This is one of the very first crinums to flower for us in late May, and continuing sporadically into October with 3' tall spikes topped with fragrant pure white flowers.
