Hi Emily, it sounds to us like the former owners planted the lily outside and somehow it has survived. Last year was a very mild winter, yet it seems strange it’s the first year it has bloomed. It could be that it’s in a sunny enough spot and close to the house that it’s defying its typical hardiness zone. We say, enjoy it while it lasts! —The Editors
