Hi Jane; I've given up trying to show photos here, but will say that N. thompsonianum is absolutely superb in our wet, hot/humid southeastern US climate.

Here is another taken the same day, showing a group of Notholirion thomsonianum (all the same clone) flowering in light shade. The mess of long leaves flat on the ground belongs to them, and is why this is not perhaps a plant for the fastidious gardener. Like Cardiocrinum, Notholirion is monocarpic; the bulb that produces the scape dies, leaving dozens of offsets of a sequence of ages. That's why you can have all the Notholirion you want from the BX, but you have to wait a while for flowering. Note that the shortest one in the photo is fasciated: the stem is flattened and broad, and carries more flowers, more closely spaced than normal. This occurs occasionally here.
