This is called “Star of Bethlehem”, but it is not the weed that is native to North Carolina.
This is Ornithogalum arabicum.
Its blooms sit on a eighteen-inch stalk.
It has a lovely fragrance.
I love the shiny black eyes in the center.
Mine are planted near our walkway into the house.
It is a star in my eastern garden, though it comes from the Mediterranean.

Beautiful.
I hope you don’t mind if I share this post on Tuesday Reblogs at Riverside Peace.
Because I’ll be away for a few days, I’ll schedule it for next week.

I have these growing in my garden, they arrived by chance but mine are not as tall as yours, maybe you have moister conditions than I have.

One of my favorite bulbs! I tried it once, but sadly it did not return the following year. I think it was that unusually long and cold winter of 2016 that did it in. I would try it again in a heartbeat, but they are inexplicably hard to find around here. Strange, because they are just unbelievably beautiful!
