With degrees from Clemson University and the University of Washington, as well as 30 years of experience cultivating Crinum at his organic farm, horticulturalist Jenks Farmer provides us all the key insights required to make the multitude of Crinum species and hybrids flourish in our gardens.
Inside the book we can explore:

Jenks has an infectious passion for Crinum, which is apparent in each word of every tale told within this seminal volume. To fulfill one of his greatest desires, he has compiled this collection of knowledge in the hopes of conveying the love for this special bulb to future generations: just as Crinums themselves have been passed down by so many gardeners who have come before.
