White Flower Challenge - Day 11

Dietes grandiflora
Fortnight Lily

Not really a lily, but a member of the iris family, this hardy perennial is from Africa. Its common name, Fortnight Lily, refers to its habit of bloom-bursts every two weeks throughout the year.

Those are beautiful. They would make a gorgeous flower for weddings.

I like the name Fortnight Lily.
