Crinum bulbispermum color

Hi,

I think my plant is C. bulbispermum and that the species is variable. I have one without noticeable pink or red on the petals, the stripes on the outside of the petals are greenish-tan. It does have a pink style. Anther sacs are white. The petals are ivory, and the flowers appear ivory from a distance becuase the outer color is not strong. The flowers don't hang down much and are about 7 inches long, with about half of that devoted to the tube behind the corolla (typical C. bulbispermum).

Is this a typical color for C. bulbispermum? I've always thought of the species as having pink and white flowers. It is a foundling with typical C. bulbisperumum blue-gray-green foliage and long tapering leaves.

Cordially,
