I had a number of Crinums seeds that germinated and grew for two years in a pot. Planted out last year and grew well.
The year in spring the bulb showed no signs of growth. I dug it up and cut off the top dead leaf remnants and the attached photos show what I found. My guess is a Narcissus bulb fly larva is somewhere deep in side the bulb. The bulb is firm and has a good root system attached.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
