Got these blooms in a flower arrangement recently.
Presume they are some sort of lily maybe.
They are very fragrant and I would like to grow them.
Any clues?

They're called Lotus Lilies. Too many petals and no anthers to shed pollen.

Pretty Lilium and I agree it looks like one of the "Lotus" types. Here are a couple of similar ones in our database:

Double Oriental lily, hence the fragrance. Hard to say which cultivar though, there are so many pink ones. And some have had name changes to complicate things. Just enjoy your flowers!
