Crinum natans is a very beautiful and graceful bulbous plant with
dark-green leaves. Plant so the top 2/3 of the bulb is visible. When the plant
grows older (if it is thriving) it sometimes forms small bulbs and sends a
flower stem up to the water surface with a beautiful and aromatic lily flower.
The plant varies considerably in leaf width and the shape of the leaf margin. It
is also suitable for indoor ponds, and is not eaten by herbivorous fish.
