    When I was walking in the yard, chasing butterflies, I came across this lily by the tree where those other ones were earlier in the spring. I didn't plant any lilies here so they are always a surprise when I find them. I don't have any idea what kind of lily this is because I don't know much about lilies.

    It certainly looks like some kind of lily but I don't have a clue which one it is. I hope someone can ID it for you as it's a real gem.
