wildflowerpa Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Anyone know what this is? It is really little and delicate. It came up by itself but I have seen them along the back roads growing too. There are three flowers per stem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavender Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 It looks like a turks cap lily but they get about 3 ft tall and the petals curve back. I checked my wildflower book and there is something called a wood lily (Lilium philadelphicum) that at its lower range is only a foot tall and is found in dry thickets and open woods. From its name it sounds at though it might be more common in the eastern part of the state. I've never seen one. I'd really like to! http://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=LIPH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildflowerpa Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 I'm having trouble resizing the pic. Guess I'd make a rotten plastic surgeon lol. See if this is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildflowerpa Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 From what we found, it looks like a Canada lily. We found it while looking for another flower. Relieved to know that the foxglove that is growing in the flower bed isn't an endangered one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
