I was given these bulbs today. I assume it is a Crinum.

Can anybody confirm please?

Hi John.

Your plant is definitely a Crinum. My guess is Crinum moorei but a hybrid might be possible as well.

It's the pink form of Crinum moorei. C. moorei is a spectacular tropical looking plant, sadly needing a lot of space to fully develop.

Thanks very much for your identification.
I'll now find the right spot for it to spread.
