Swamp lily

Crinum americanum

Range: Southeastern USA, Mexico & Caribbean

This is a beautiful and fragrant perennial found in swampy areas and along the edges of freshwater lakes and streams. Related to amaryllis, Crinums are easy to grow and showy in the landscape. Although gardeners in South Florida can grow many species of Crinum, this one grows naturally in South Florida and other parts of the southeastern USA.

Esta es una planta perenne hermosa y fragante que se encuentra en áreas pantanosas y a lo largo de los bordes de lagos y arroyos de agua dulce. Relacionada con la amarilis, los Crinums son fáciles de cultivar y vistosos en el paisaje. Aunque los jardineros en el sur de Florida pueden cultivar muchas especies de Crinum, este crece naturalmente en el sur de Florida y otras partes del sureste de los Estados Unidos.
