The Crinum Powelli Pink, also referred to as the Swamp Lily, is a captivating plant known for its large, trumpet-like, pink flowers. These blossoms can reach a width of up to 5 inches (12cm) and are a sight to behold. Each robust, green stem of this plant can yield between 8 to 10 of these exotic-looking flowers, making it an ideal addition to your garden pots or borders. In terms of its growing cycle, the Swamp Lily should ideally be planted in the spring season. It's a summer and autumn bloomer, offering a vibrant display during these seasons. One of the most notable features of the Crinum Powelli Pink is its strong fragrance, which can serve as a natural air freshener for your outdoor spaces. Given its slightly delicate nature, this plant may require some extra care during the winter months. It's advised to protect or lift the plant over winter to ensure its survival and bloom in the following seasons. Despite these considerations, the beauty and fragrance of the Swamp Lily make it well worth the effort.

How to care for Crinums
- When the flowers fade, remove each one to encourage further flowering from new buds.
- After flowering, remove the old stems entirely.
- If you are leaving your Crinums in the ground over winter, add a layer of mulch around the bulb to protect them and cover them with extra mulch.
- If you are lifting and storing them over winter, cut back all the foliage and lift the bulbs out of the ground, then store them in a light, frost-free place.
- The bulbs can then be replanted the following spring.
