This is the Carolina Lily, Lilium michauxii, the official state wildflower of North Carolina. It grows about 3 feet tall, usually blooms in July and August and is supposed to be the only fragrant native Lily east of the Rockies. I have never seen it rebloom. Every time I find a plant in bloom, I mark the spot to watch for it next year. Inevitably, nothing comes up from last years spot, but other carolina lilies will be blooming within a yard or two from the previous years plant. . . . #nativelily #carolinalily #lilium #liliummichauxii #wildflowers #nativeplants #shadegarden #woodlandgarden #ilovegardening #wncmountains #blueridgemountains #upperhickorynutgorge #ilovewhereilive #inspiration #garden (at Gerton, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0vsbdjgK_x/?igshid=1saoodklapmx0

Remember the recent plant id question i put out there? On our hike yesterday we were in an area with very rich soil and had sooooo many native plants. Well, part of this area was covered in that unknown plant. There were enough older stems that i could identify them as lilies. So these are lily seedlings. The narrow leaf is the Turk's Cap (Lilium superbum) the wider more rounded leaf is the Carolina Lily (Lilium michauxii) these are seedlings. . . . #lilliummichauxii #liliumsuperbum #carolinalily #turkscap #lily #seedlings #species #nativeflowers #hikingfinds #hikingwithfriends #blueridgemountains #upperhickorynutgorge #southernappalachia #mountaingarden #shadeplants #shadegarden #woodland #woodlandplants #maker #inspiration #ilovewhereilive #ilovegardening (at Gerton, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-7T3IJj1pz/?igshid=143cz5tasd8b0
