Please help me identify this flower/plant.-- blackberry lily

Hello everyone. I live near Chicago, IL. This flower blooms every year around midsummer. Home's previous owner must have planted it, but I have no idea what it is. I thought it was a toad lily but the leaves of the plant are different and this flower does not have the distinctive center petals.

Looks like Belamcanda, Blackberry Lily:

Or Pardancanda, which is a cross of Belamcanda and Pardanthopsis:

Thanks Chris, that is exactly what it is, I recognise the shape and pattern of the leaves as well as the flowers.
