What is the name of this flower?
did this flower fall off of a tree onto the grass/ if so, it might be a royal poinciana, also called flamboyant tree. those trees grow in the tropics and they have flowers like this.

I hope it helps.
Reply:Without pictures of the base of the blossom, I'm only making an educated guess, but it looks like at least a *relative* of a trout lily. They don't have any leaves along the stems, except at the bottom, if at all. It's not a grass lily, as those have several blossoms coming from a single stem, all connecting to the stem at a single node (think of an amaryllis, if you're familiar with those). Trout lilies and its relatives have "basal" leaves that grow from the base of the stem, close to the ground; some have no leaves at all above ground.





I'd suggest taking more pictures of it from several angles, and contacting a horticulturist at a university in your area; they can help you make a more definite ID.





Whatever it is, it's very pretty :-)
Reply:It looks like an Iris more than anything else. But is not one I am familiar with.





Where does it grow? Is it a garden hybrid, or is it wild? Iridaceae.


Yet it seems to be 5 parted, not double 3's.





Perhaps not actually an Iris (Genus), but something in the Iris family. Quite strange.





How large is this bloom? I like it I want to know more. And my searches are not finding answers. Its not from my part of the world.
Reply:I don't know, some kind of Iris maybe. It's pretty exotic. I've never seen it before, but looking at the foliage and blossom, it looks like some of the Iris that bloom in early spring and like to grow near water.
Reply:it is a daylily in orange, i think
Reply:Some kind of Lily.....a Wild, Tiger Lily, maybe
