Pretty Little Things

 Several years ago now Will and I scavenged seeds from a neighbor's plant after we saw it bloom.  We have been waiting patiently for those seeds to grow and bloom.  Finally, after two years, the plants have produced gorgeous little blossoms.

The leaves and greenery of the plant are very lily-like, so we assume that this is sometime of lily.  We aren't exactly sure-- and we aren't exactly sure how we can ask the neighbor.  Do we admit that in the middle of the night, we pilfered seeds from his plant that was, to be fair, growing in the tree box and so technically in city property? Or do we keep quiet, make up a name of the pretty flower, and not say a word?  Hmmmm, I think I know which one it will be....

It looks like a cross between a lily and an orchid doesn't it? Very pretty!
