Fig. 36: Crinum bulbispermum variabilis. Excluding some
two-flowered Crinum species, all subtropical Codonocrinum subgenera forms have
pedicellated blossoms which flower sequentially one to three days apart.
This bulb was collected in 1938 along the Orange River by Dr. Rhodin
from U. C. Berkeley. It is a hexaploid. 'Cape Dawn' is its hybrid
with C. macowanii above.
