Thanks, everyone. I decided I'd rather lose the 4 clumps/3 varieties than risk my whole collection. I can't put yard waste in my trash. Is it okay to burn these? Thanks! Lin in east Texas PS - I noticed there were no photos of virused crinum on the web site. If you'd like to use mine, feel free. If you need higher-res pictures, just email me.

But letting one go to seed, and then growing new bulbs from seed will. It may have already been mentioned here, sorry for duplication then. I wish you good luck.
