Notes:

Can you please tell me what this flower is? It looks like a Lily but I have not been able to determine its name.

   Hello,
   This appears to be a Cahaba Lily (Hymenocallis coronaria)named after the Cahaba River in Alabama where the lily is indigenous. It is listed as an endangered lily, so take good care of it. I have a colony of them that my aunt gathered many years ago before the endangered designation was placed on them. They are not hard to grow; just keep it well watered. They even grow IN the water.
