I'm guessing again.. I googled gladiolas and although I couldn't find a picture of the folliage the description of it fits your picture.

Might also be a crinum, though it doesn't look quite right for that.

Looks like a ditch lily to me (daylily.) I have tons of them and some of them don't bloom either.
