We call those Lilies, 'Naked Ladies' in Wisconsin. They look real cute next to one of those plywood 'Granny's Bloomers Butts' in the garden. NOT! LOL!

They’re called “naked ladies” here, also, but I deferred to the other name I’ve heard. ;)

You wouldn’t believe the story I could tell about trying to figure out their name from some of the locals here. The previous owner (the first owner was apparently a master gardener) had planted them, and I had NO IDEA, until someone figured out what I was trying to describe. Had a good laugh is all I can say, but my conversation was with a man behind a booth at the 4H garden show. I turned all shades of red when I figured it out. It sounded like he was suggesting something.
