Hymenocallis flower at the Tulum Ruins
I found this flower amongst the ruins at Tulum. An image search has not revealed its name. Feel free to post its name in the comments if you know it.
Update
The flower has been identified as Hymenocallis. Thanks goes to Barb for sharing the name in the comments.
