Hello flwr

My mom has this plant that bears flowers that look a lot like orchid. However, the leaves aren't like those of orchids at all.. They are thin. The flowers are slightly scented. Does anyone know what plant this is?

Here are the photos of the plant:

Photos 18, 19 and 20.


Thanks in advance! kissie

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. Mary Ann LaPensee

They're orchids? Does anyone know what type? Their leaves aren't like most orchids I've encountered.. They look like lily leaves.
