Oron, it is not C. thaianum at all. It is a new species, undescribed. It has the leaves in a fan and not in a rosette like almost all the other Crinums! Thaianum is a aquatic species living under water all year long, just the flowers emerge from water! This species dislikes to be in water, just the soil have to be moist but not bog, at least this is my experience. This species is deciduous and need a lot of warm also in winter, as all the crinums from India and Southern Asia!

I will try it,

This is a photo of C. thaianum from the site Flora of Thailand /Thai Forest Bulletin/office of the forest herbarium, where plants seems to be growing out of the water.. ???
To confirm, they growth under water totally.
