The only lilies I know much about are daylilies. This pic shows some lilies that were here when we arrived. I'm sure they are common to you all but I don't know what to call them. Can you help?
Help identify? Ignorant about lilies

The foliage doesn't fit Crinum bulbispermum, it's more basal, broad and wavy. (editing to say I really don't know what I meant here! Perhaps it was meant to be zeylanicum, as I put bulbispermum below, and the supposed link to zeylanicum was one of scabrum, which is apparently not correct, but stated by some as so.)
It is possibly a hybrid of C bulbispermum

There is also an not talked about much one called "gulf pride".
very common on the gulf coast and is identified by the glossier foliage.
This is one of the many Crinums known generally as a xherbertii type, as described in William Herbert's _Amaryllidaceae_ of 1837. It is a cross of Crinum scabrum with x powellii, neither of which have the gray-green foliage of bulbispermum or hybrids thereof.
Depending on the qualities of the two parents, the same cross has led to a great many variations in stripe width and its color and intensity. Some are named, some are heirloom old, most are just nameless 'passalongs' till someone names their strain.
One of my favorite Crinums. http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/622507/
