Or Wood's Blue Goddess.  Post pictures of the pads, that'll help.  But since you can't trace the provedence of the lily it really should be called "un-name pretty blue lily, that might be a Colorata or Wood's blue Goddess, but don't quote me on that". Guessing at the name, and then passing the lily along to other lily lovers is one way so many incorrect lilies end up on the market.

yeah i vote on it just being a really gorgeous un-named... because for the longest time i tried to put names to my lilies until i realized its nearly impossible unless you had the origional name/plant from the start- if say you had a colorata that seeded, and those seeds grew out to look exactly like the parent plant, its still not the same plant. but shes pretty none the less
