the trumpets are starting to bloom

Haydenville, MA(Zone 5a)

Actually not sure if would be considered 'trumpets' or LAs or???
Here is a peachy one I planted 2 years ago...don't remember it flowering before this year...looks a bit like some I have seen in the catalogs....sweet fragrance that quickly overpowered my car when I drove to work with 2 blooms open....excellent in the garden though, perfuming the yard sweetly.

Here is a solid yellow...also fragrant
Named 'Golden Splendor'
Edited to say....not sure about the name. It was packed with the name 'Golden Splendor' but the pictures in Plantfiles and on the website catalogs all say the strain has variable amounts of chocolate brown reverse [this one is solid yellow front and reverse]...which some of the others have (those have not bloomed yet)....so the jury is out.

Could they be orienpets? Seems too early for trumpets in our zone. Although my phlox are blooming!

Thanks for the clarification you guys - thanks for being patient and setting me straight. I am pretty new with lilies...and am still learning which are which! Some of the others I know are orienpets don't look this far along at all! Go figure.

Here is one from the Lily Garden...supposed to be 'Ice Caves' but it doesn't have the icy green throat...
