Hello to all users,

last year we visited Australia. On our tour, we took a picture of a flower on Fraser Island. It is about 1m high, i guess. I am not sure if it is a wild flower, but I don't think so, because we saw it in a resort. But it must grow on sandy floor.
It is really important for us, to know the name, so many people ask us, and we can´t give an answer.
Thank you for every helpful answer.

I think you will find the plant is Crinum pedunculatum, which is a
native of Australia and often grown in gardens.
