Asiatic poisonbulb

Crinum asiaticum L. is a perennial plant in the Amaryllidaceae family, characterized by its bulb and umbel of large, showy flowers. It is commonly planted in warmer regions for ornamental purposes. The plant is toxic, with all parts harmful if ingested, and the sap may cause skin irritation. It is native to and cultivated in locations such as Langkawi, Kosrae, Yap, the Pitcairn Islands, and several atolls in the Pacific. The species was first described in 1753. Earlier typification efforts by botanists have been clarified, with some misidentifications corrected in subsequent studies.
