    I thought the first one was a lily. Now, I am very much NOT a green thumb, so this may be a dumb question. Is there a way to tell what kind of lily it is - I'm curious to research it to see what it will look like and how to care for it...mostly because I am thinking of transplanting it to another part of the yard.

    Thanks!!

    No bulbis on the stem (yet). I'm hoping maybe someone can help me identify which type it is. Thank you so much for your help - I really appreciate it!!

    Ooh, I hope they are Oriental Lilies - I googled them and they are beautiful!!! I would say that you might be right...that's what they look like!! I have some almost 2 ft tall already - in the past week, they really grew!! Do I need to wait until the end of the season to transplant them?
