Debra,
Crinums are in the amaryllis family, Amaryllidaceae. They are most closely
related to other African amaryllids like Brunsvigia, Amaryllis, and Nerine.
Take a look at: http://www.shieldsgardens.com/amaryllids/tree.html for a
phylogenetic tree based on DNA data. The work is from Kew and other
laboratories around the world.
