Lily of the river
Article Abstract:
Cahaba Lily is incomparably beautiful, a six-inch starburst of luminous white atop a bare, three-foot stem that emerges from a shock of erect, dark green, swordlike leaves. The Cahaba lily grows in shallow, free-flowing water, its bulbous roots anchored among layered rocks where the stream fans out and pushes back the tree canopy, allowing the plant to bask in sunshine.
