Stumped on a crossword? Discover the mystery of ‘Kind of lily’!

As a detective, my first instincts when trying to solve the mystery of a crossword clue are to take a step back and analyze the clue from various angles. In this case, the clue was ‘kind of lily‘. This immediately narrowed my focus down to the many different types of lilies that exist. Drawing upon my knowledge, I realized that there are a few common types of lilies that are frequently mentioned in popular culture, such as the Easter lily and the tiger lily. However, none of these seemed to fit the six letter criteria that the answer to the clue required.

After further brainstorming, I considered the possibility that the clue was referring to a lesser-known species of lily. This is when I recalled the Sego Lily, a flower native to the Western region of North America. Further research confirmed that the Sego Lily is indeed a type of lily and consists of six letters, making it a perfect fit for the crossword clue.

Overall, my detective instincts and knowledge of common vegetation allowed me to decipher the meaning behind the cryptic crossword clue and correctly identify the answer as ‘SEGO’.
