Tiger Lily close up

This is an orangey red tiger lily that grows each year in my garden.

I love looking out my kitchen window in the morning and seeing their fiery color in the bright sun. They really are quite pretty when grown in large clumps.

Just don’t bend down to try to smell a lily. That colored pollen stains and if you get it on your face, arm or shirt it will take a while to get off. I believe it’s just about impossible to get off clothes!

    Beautiful! We’re currently getting our first decent snow - this is a great reminder that spring is going to come eventually; better look for my seed catalogs!

    Here’s mine.

    Good tip! I didn’t know that about the pollen because I thought if I ever smelled it I would sneeze for a day or two! Your photo is awesome.

    Great shots, and I bet they smell great too.
