Check out this photo.
I think it might be lilies but I really don't have a clue.
There was a bed of these in my backyard when I bought the place.
Just curious as to WHAT they are. A total NOID as far as I'm concerned.
Am I even in the right Forum?
Dawn they look like Iris to me don't know for sure which kind though ;0)
Gloria
They are Spuria Iris and the name is White Heron. I have a bunch of them. BEV

Gloria
They are beautiful. I'm going to check them out, too.

Spuria Iris (White Heron)... Thanks everybody...
I'll be moving them to the front yard shortly (right after they finish blooming)...
Glevely, Dragonfly62 (BEV), and Chocolatemoose... --- If there are any extras (and I'm pretty sure there will be considering how they are packed in there), I'll contact you and see if you want some.
Thanks for taking the time to respond...
Dawn
Dawn, Thanks but no thanks. I have 4 big bunches of them. I have a lady from Indiana coming last of June to take one whole bunch back. Thanks again. BEV
thank you !!! yes I would be interested let me know ;0)
Gloria
Dawn...I'd be interested, too! You never know...either potted or protected up against the house. I'd love to try them.

Little beggar that I am would love just a couple for postage....those are pretty!! How tall are they?
The blooms sit at about 1 1/2 ft.
I'll start digging as soon as they stop blooming.
I'll get in touch with you all at that time and see how many you want.
I have a friend that looked at them today and he said he had some that are kinda similar but they are taller. I told him to take a photo of them. He is clearing them out and he says he has ALOT.
I'll post his pic and see if you all can ID it and whether you want some of those.
I have a brand new HUGE bed just begging for any thing to come live there ;0)

Well, I think we can hook you up Glevely. I just don't have that big a yard to work with and so I am slowly removing the stuff the previous owner had that doesn't fit in with my plans.
let me know if you have any thing that can live in a zone 5 i can cheat some things to a 6 but not much more I'd take such good care of them ;0)
Gloria
I just found a neigbor that has this and will give me some...but thank you very much anyway.
