I don't know what this plant is, but it was growing up out of the shallow water.

Thanks Al! That makes sense. It looks like a lily and grows in a swamp.

Yup, Crinum americanum...very nicely captured!

There are several other native Crinums in Florida, but the flowers are different. BTW, Crinums aren't really "lilies", they are related to Amaryllis.
