    Got a start of these from an old neighbor/friend from the trailer park last year. They sure are liking being in the dirt instead of a container!

    Wow what beauties. They are going on my Fall plant order list. I am on the northern end of the hardiness zones for them, but I have a couple of pots that should do just fine for them through the winter.

    Another example of a common name being used for different plants that aren't related. ;)
    Your flower is a Hymenocallis liriosme and our data base is in need of information and photos of this beauty ;)

    Hymenocallis liriosme

    OH, those are really cool. I love them and I wish they grew here, but since Toni is on the northern end of it's zone i am pretty sure it won't grow here. :(

    The blooms don't last very long... just about a day.
    But it does spread... so maybe over time, I can enjoy blooms day after day after day!
