These just started popping up in our neighborhood. Not in my yard yet, but have seen a few in my neighbor's yard. No one seems to know what they are!I am in Pensacola. Moved here in 2014. Have never seen these until this year.

We call them hurricane lillies in SC because of the time of year they bloom.

d/l one of many apps for your phone/texting machine .... as I call 'em .... many are free & some are pay ware or subscription. Could come in handy when lost in the woods for days and days ... if battery is not dead.
The free one I use is "LeafSnap"
... don't want to eat the wrong berries .... but then again you got survival training .......

My survival training was exactly 3 days, and that was in 1981! If I ended up in the wilderness now, might as well count me as room temperature! NC:biggrin-new:

My SEEK app (free) calls it a Red Spider Lily. But the app doesn't get everything right. Also there is a warning not to eat anything it "identifies"
