Crinum identification: 5 images.
need help with identifying the Crinum spp. I think it is C. wodrowii but need an expert to confirm. Seen last saturday 9th June in a site which is planned to be submerged in backwaters of a dam.
C. wodrowii is an endangered species which makes me worry more about the habitat being drowned.


Same as your thought … Crinum woodrowii.

Names of Plants in India :: Crinum eleonorae:
Crinum eleonorae
botanical names: Crinum eleonorae Blatt. & McCann … synonym: Crinum eleonorae f. purpureum Blatt. & McCann


Just wanted to know who put forma purpureum as synonym of C. elenorae, because BSI treat them distinct plant, (Flora of Maharashtra by B.D.Sharma, S. Karthikeyan and N.P.Singh, 1996)
forma purpureum has perigone deeply tinged with purple on the dorsal side and perigone tube with bracts uniformly brown-purple.
