SEED PODS OF THE 

 CRINUM 



The seeds of the crinum show an 

 extraordinary range of variation, some 

 of them being small, whereas others are 

 so large as to suggest miniature bulbs. 

 The latter are so succulent that some- 

 times they sprout when dry and lying 

 on a shelf. The seed pods are not red 

 as represented here. They are pale 

 yellow.
