Crinum Lily

These are two Crinum Lillies I found working in one of my gardens. The owner has about 20 large clumps of these lillies, which are closely related to the Amaryllis (and which I thought they were at first). These two are seedlings. The larger one still has the original fruit attached to itself. The small one, from root tip to leaf tip is about 5 inches long. I moved them from where they were since they get so big but had to take a photo since they are so beautiful.
