I have never seen these lilies that I know of, they are quite beautiful, & have the look of being very dainty . I would guess they are very fragrant.

Marvin.... The common name with "lily" in it is a bit deceptive. These aren't true lilies -- they're in the Amaryllis family.... Not scented either. But they are pretty =)

Thanks Fiz, now I get it. They resemble the Crinum agustum , the Giant Spider "lilies". It is said some of those live forever - one cold cold night mine froze !
