Could someone please identify this plant for me?? It came up this spring by my barn. I don't know if it is a pineapple lily..or what??? It really doesn't look like the pictures of that lily that I have seen?
The leaves on this lily are triangular..and hollow? Strange looking...lol.
Thanks for any help on this!

I also meant to say...the leaves are pretty thin and strappy looking. It came up in front of an iris...so those broad leaves are iris.

Also known as a foxtail lily. It would not grow for me.
