    Hello,

    This flower has bloomed in my parent's backyard. It came from a bulb, but we can't remember what it is. It looks to be a lily or an amaryllis of some sort? But after searching through the internet, we still cannot identify it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I hadn't even thought of daffodils :)

    Thanks again!

    Outlets here have offered them in the past, I've tried two plantings on two sites but in both cases slug damage was prohibitive. The second time they would shear the leaves off very soon after their emergence.
