    Hi! I need help identifying what type of plant this is (photos attached). I found it a couple of weeks ago at a discount store and it did not have any type of identifying information or care instructions. I've tried researching on the web but can't seem to locate anything. It appears to be a bulb plant and the flowers resemble (at least to my untrained eye) those of an orchid; however the leaves don't match any I could find. The leaves are broad and frilled and not at all smooth. The stems of the plant remind me of a succulent. The leaves have yellowed a bit since I brought it home so I've played around with the watering frequency, but the plant still appears to be quite healthy with new growth appearing, both leaves and flowers. Any help in identifying this plant would be greatly appreciated and if anyone has any tips on its care, I welcome those as well. Thank you!
