Does anyone know what a Cahaba Lily looks like? I thought this was it, and I planted some, but no, there is a difference. Luciee {;^) I looked it up and there are several articles about it. I should have done so first, before asking. But it is an interesting subject. It has specific requirements in that it needs running water and a lot of sunshine. It is also called "Shoals Lily". Like I said, interesting subject. If anyone has more to say, go right ahead. Luciee {;^)

Sunnyg, I think there's even a club or society for them. Live and learn, die and forget it all!! Luciee {;^)
