Started growing wild in my yard. Looks like some type of Rhizome or Bulb roots. Is it Tulips or Lily of some type? Thanks.

Have you ever seen it flower? Are the leaves fragrant?

Maybe Lily of the Nile.

Yes, I believe it looks like Lily of the Nile or very similar to. I think my parents have one, I will compare it to that next time I am over there. Thank you very much!

No haven't seen it flower, we bought the house last year and then this just started growing. If it is something that blooms and is pretty I will keep it and or transplant it. Another poster said Lily of the Nile. That could be it, looks very similar. Thanks.
