Crinum Fiesta Cypella The 1' tall green pitchersCrinum 'Fiesta' is a 1992 Steve Lowe hybrid of Crinum macowanii 'Lady Black' and Crinum 'Carnival' that forms a beautiful clump of long, glossy green, arching foliage. Starting in mid June it is topped with giant 4' tall flower spikes, each with up to 15 rich pink, fragrant flowers. Each flower is highlighted with a darker pink stripe on the back of each keel and a yellow throat a real winner.
