Jim, 

Don't remermber seeing cinums there at the time of the Clivia Conference.  The property is quite shaded.  Margot has mainained the plantings beautifully.  Saw 'Four Mary' there and many of its look alike seedlings.

Go and visit on your trip.

  David,

  I wonder if all Gordon McNeil's plants are lost?  His wife still lives on 
  the property in South Africa and still grows clivias.  Maybe she  has some 
  of his crinums too?
