Perfumed Spider Lily is a native evergreen herbaceous perennial with basal-forming strap-like arching foliage. In summer, umbels of fragrant white daffodil shaped flowers with long spidery segments attract butterflies. Best bloom in rich, moist to wet well-drained soils. All parts are poisonous if eaten.
