Blackberry Lily, Iris domestica Volunteer in the native plants garden (nonnative, but a lovely addition; not considered invasive). Growth habit shot at <a href="https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/191150693" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.inaturalist.org/observations/191150693</a>. Despite the 6-fold lily-like appearance, it's actually an iris, with 3 petals and 3 petal-like sepals, hence the slight asymmetry.
