I would be grateful if someone could identify this plant. It is a bulb (I think) of a venerable age - it has been growing on our property for at the very least 60 years. No matter what life throws at this plant - frost, drought, insect attack, disease, or simply general neglect - it has proven to be indestructible. The leaves are about 55cm long, and, at the whorl-shaped base of the plant, about 10 cm wide. They have striations on the surface that reflect the inner structure of the leaf. The plant flowers in late spring/early summer here in the antipodes, and always in response to rainfall - if there is no rain, there are no flowers. The flowers themselves are very short lived. In the attached pictures it is possible to see the crescent-shaped anthers. Thanks in advance.
This is a crinum. Amaryllis and crinums are in the same family. Since this is white with pink stripes, it is considered a "milk and wine". Any white crinum with pink stripes is considered a "milk and wine" lilly. There are many white with pink stripes. This may be a "hebertii". The difference is mainly in the leaves and shape of the petals. You find them in old cemeteries.
