Hello,I am looking for help identifying a plant that I inherited from my mom. Long story short, it came with me from North Carolina several years ago. I was super little when she died but my grandma kept it alive, though she didn't know what it was.

It's an Asiatic lily.

FYI, you can dig out these plants in the Fall and divide the bulbs. If you've never done that, it's very easy, just google it. Replant and next year you'll have lots more lilies coming up! And just be aware that lilies tend to get attacked by Asiatic lily beetles. They will eat those to the ground in one season! Be sure to inspect your lilies regularly and get rid of those nasty buggers right away if you see them.

I hate red lily beetles. They've more than decimated my collection of lilies. :(
