Here it is...What is it?
One more close-up
It is a crinum. I have one also, that I dug up at an old homesite east of here. Mine is blooming and is fragrant. I liked it because the foilage isn't lazy like most crinum, so I can plant around it without having its companions buried under the leaves. I haven't found a specie or variety name for it. I did see one over at the botanical garden in Largo, but, the name tag was missing. Maybe next time I am over there they will have replaced it.
This is why i love this site, so now I know a new species of plant that i can grow down here,
While I was checking out Crinum i found this site

Looks like yours is
C.moorei (at the end of the page)
I think it is St Christopher Lily or Crinum jagus.

Looks like your right the C.Jagus has the more erect leaf. There all so great, although I like the idea of the more erect leaf. Just might have to add them to the list.
I was thinking the same thing. :-)
