LILIES IN MY YARD (and a few other things)

NOPE, NOT THE LILIES IN THE FIELD, these are some of the lilies in my yard. I have loads of these, they were throw-aways from my previous house… the were just tossed into the edge of the woods when I first moved here, but the woods got cut down and the space they were in got cleaned up and is now mowed…

The rest are in various garden spots around the yard. This one is very small – note my hand under the bloom to give an example of size.

This is another old lily, it has been divided and shared for years. I like the dark color.

Most of my other lilies were gifts, and they all came from Sterrett Gardens.

Even Buddha has his favorite lilies. 

And this is my favorite… I think there is a slight resemblance to one of the ancestors of Happy Happy! Dontcha think? She’s just about big enough to share… 

It is also the season for Hydrangeas. My biggest one is magnificent. But I also love the color on the smaller one.

In the veggie garden dept, I just pulled my first cucumber and gave it to Beatrice and Grenville. It is my policy to always give away my first born, I was taught to do that by my grandmother. Here is a new baby. I love the shape of the leaves and the curling tendrils.

And St Fwankie is standing among some glorious colors this year… he just needed to be seen again.Look at that red!
