I just received a very nice birthday present. 3 large bulbs of Crinum powelli 'Alba'!
My only problem with them is, it is the wrong time of year.... they have no top growth - maybe they have been kept in cold storage - though appear perfectly healthy. I have three options:
1. Plant them out - surely it is too late.
2. Pot them up and put them in the greenhouse. This can be heated in v cold weather.
3. Take them back with me to Brazil, when I go in October.
3. Is the obvious option but involves smuggling.............
Love to hear your views.

Everyone likes butterflies. Nobody likes caterpillars.
