Recognize this lily?
It sure looks like the rare Cahaba Lily that grows in Alabama's Cahaba River. However, it was found growing in Old Town Selma. Could this be a type of spider lily since it's not aquatic, or is it a land-locked variation of the hymenocallis coronaria?

Yes, I believe that is a spider lily. You can check out the Caroline Dean wildflower directory for Auburn University here: http://content.lib.auburn.edu/cdm4/browse.php?CISOROOT=/flora.
They have some shots of this very flower.
It sure is pretty!
I have no idea what it is, but I have some in our garden. They bloom so rarely!
I don't know what it is, have never seen anything quite like it, but I sure love it and am glad you showed it here.
