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.

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?

Be happy to send you some if you want.
