Did you see any blooms? I have a plant similar to this. It is a kind of
'torch lily' but not the big red-hot pokers. These are much smaller and
the buds start out like your picture and then shoot up on a slender stem
to open into a small clump of yellow flowers. I know I have the label
around here somewhere. I'll see if I can find it. My plant has gotten
huge, with quite a numbers of small plants hanging out of the pot.
Epiphytic roots everywhere...

Do you have any other pictures of it?

This past July I was hiking along a huge cliff near Hole In The Wall on
Grand Manan Island of the coast of New Brunswick - this was the only
plant growing on - out of - the rock, I was amaized by its ability to
grow under such adverse conditions, but I can not find out what it is -

Any help identifying this plant would be welcome.
