Anyone know what this flower is?

We mowed over it a couple of times last year, so it never bloomed. I've been expectantly waiting this year and it finally came out:


I was expecting an iris, since the leaves look a lot like iris. The blooms aren't very big, the whole thing would fit in the palm of my hand (I have small hands).

I think that's a blackberry lilly.

It's a blackberry lily.

Don't deadhead as the seed pods look like blackberries (hence the name), so they give winter interest and then you also get baby blackberry lilies in the spring.
