I found this flower in the yard but I don’t know what it is. Although its leaves are shaped differently, its flower looks like that of an anthurium (but not the usual ones). So if I may hazard a guess, I think it’s one of the species belonging to the genus Anthurium. Now what’s yours?
UPDATE: So I know now that it is a Peace Lilly. Thanks to Carver for giving me a name to this flower.
That looks like what we call a peace lily. I checked online and found this site, Peace Lilly Check it out and see if you think that’s it. Happy weekend.

That seems a very apt name for the flower. First time I’ve seen something like this.

First, I apologize for the comment issue - I corrected it as soon as I could, it appears to have been a spam issue. Ugh.
Secondly, I’m glad you found out what it was. I knew but am late. =)

I was thinking it was some kind of lily. I see a lot of anthriums here in Hawaii and that didn’t look like one. Great photo though!!!
Peace Lily…love them

Your post and all the responses gave me a great idea. I may start a ‘What is this?’ series of posts on my blog and maybe visitors can give me a clue as to the identity of some of the plants and creatures (particularly insects) I have photographed. Sometimes I’m stumped, lol.
I’m glad you got so many responses.

Yes, a peace lily and a lovely photo image of one. We can’t grow them outside here.

So many amazing plants and insects too!
Looks like a single petal flower.

it looked like a post-Trojan gladiator whip-end to me… or maybe Alexandrian because of the feminine touch to its killer spikes…LOL!
