(aka: Crinum 'Ruth Dubuisson Clone') Crinum 'Dragon Lady' is an introduction from Texas crinum breeder, Marcelle Sheppard, that has been a personal favorite since we first saw it in her garden in the early 2000s. Marcelle assumes this to be a cross of Crinum americanum x Crinum scabrum. Crinum 'Dragon Lady' has proven to be a very good grower and fast multiplier in our trials. For us, the lightly fragrant Crinum 'Dragon Lady' flowers on 2' tall stalks from mid-July through August.
