Marcelle's Crinums

Pretoria C. macowanii x Rose City Schoolhouse

C. macowanii x rose city schoolhouse

In addition to crossing No. 1 and No. 2, Marcelle has used the Rose City Schoolhouse C. scabrum plants to hybridize with other species of Crinum.  This page shows some of her results in crosses with various C. macowanii clones.  Some of the flowers are astonishingly beautiful, with subtle pinks or recurved petals.
