I finally rescued them from that unloving spot and moved them into the bog garden. They get more sun there. What caused them to flower was the couple of inches of rain that fell on June 22. Crinums are bog plants and they like wet feet. I haven&#8217;t read this elsewhere but I wonder if they are like rainlilies in that in order to flower they have to really dry out between drenchings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.zanthan.com\/gardens\/photos\/400\/CrinumGowenii3.jpg\" alt=\"Crinum Gowenii\" width=\"400px\" \/><br \/><i>2011-06-30.
