The white lily is apparently Hymenocalis species. I don't what particular species it is. I guess the white one is commonly known as spider lily.

Thanks Farooq & Izhar for correcting me, basically it is common name which confuse me because Hymenocalis & Crinum asiaticum both have common name spider lily.
Brig. sb. I think the image you have posted is Crinum Augustum.
Crinum asiaticum at Dave's Garden.

Crinum Augustum is a smaller plant.
Crinum Asiaticum comes in many shades and is much bigger plant as given in Daves Garden
