Okay, I have never been what you would call a 'Lily person' but that one has made convert out of me. That is so pristine and gorgeous. Do you have the name?

The closest thing I could find to your Lily is the White Carpet Border Lily. I think I will order some this fall.

WOW!! That's so gorgeous, isn't it? 
Toni ~ There's a white Asiatic Lily called ‘Navona’
pictured at the top of this page
which I think is a very close match, if not the same one that Glenda has.

It looks like you have ID'd it Zuzu. I had found several pictures of Asiatic Lilies in my search but they had more of a bell shape and the stamens were wrong.
Now I know what to go in search of.
Thanks

Oh I do sooooo love white flowers and that lily of yours is drop dead gorgeous Glenda. Just as well you don't live near me though 'cause I'd be over pinching seeds from it!!!
