I have seven seedlings and about twenty seeds that I will trade as one package to someone.
I'm looking to trade these Giant Crinum Lilys for some interesting palm seedlings, exotic fruit tree seedlings, or rare banana plants. Also interested in bromeliads, ginger, canna, and other various plants, so just shoot me a PM and let's talk!
These are ready to mail out, they are fresh seeds and, well, as fresh as seedlings come. :p

Even if your stuff is not ready to mail out yet, I can send you these now and wait till you can send yours!

Here's some links to more info and pics about these beautiful plants:

I don't have the room for your large crinum. But I have a nice dwarf crinum that produces seeds nearly as big as yours. I planted one last year to see if it would grow. I nearly gave up because it took 13 months to sprout. I put a picture of the bloom at the end of the Sept. album:

Tim Anderson gave it to me many years ago. The only people, beside Tim, that I know who have it are people that got them from me. Stop by and get one. They like acidic soil and are stoleniferous.

Thanks for having me over the other day, Jordan!
You have some of the most amazing plants in your garden that I've ever seen.
Your Talipot palms are way cool! Your six-ton staghorn is crazy!

You have quite an impressive collection of palms, orchids, fruit trees, bromeliads, crotons, plumerias, lillies, Ae-Ae, not to mention the fish among everything else.
Your garden, having been growing for so long, is extremely inspiring.
It was great meeting you and your wife Margaret, thanks again for having me!
