    This plant is in my front yard. I saw it in the store but I didn't remember enough info from the label to identify it properly. I'm located in Central California. Thanks in Advance!

    It's Agapanthus. I did a Google Search on the suggestions, and the pictures of the Agapanthus matched what I have in the yard. On the label that I saw, I read "lily of the nile". When I got home, I mistakenly searched for Lily of the Valley. Thank you all for your help!

    It looks the large Agapanthus, lilly of the nile. It is quite common in CA. I always planted Agapanthus and Amaryllis belladonna, naked ladies together. Naked ladies leaf out, then the leaves go away and the naked bloom stalks just come up thru the dirt (ie: naked ladies). If they come up amid the Ags they have borrowed clothes and don't look quite as naked. barb
