Hello Adam,
This is Urginea maritima, a typical méditerranean bulb.

Not open yet. Best guess at this stage --in bud--an ornithogalum.

Hi, A friend in Portugal sent me this beauty, from the woods near Lissabon

, does anyone know what it is? (more or less!) He wrote thus:

"Strange thing is that is has no leaves. Just sprouts from the

soil, about 50-60 cms tall."

I have no idea myself, perhaps in the Asphodelaceae family?
