Day lilies in the garden

Next Spring I think I’ll look for more day lilies. They make a lovely display in the garden, especially ones that bloom more than once each year!

If my memory serves me correctly the ones I’ve pictured above are called Candy Stripe and yes, they rebloom about four times each season. I grow them in the boulevard in front of my house.

Gardeners, Plant and Nature lovers can join in every Sunday, visit As the Garden Grows for more information.

Bright red lilies

This weeks theme is RED

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!

Rain drops on Snapdragons

by Tricia

Wordless Wednesday

white Snapdragon

I took this photo sometime over the summer after it had rained in the garden.

Why do flowers look so much more pretty when they have water droplets on them?

This of course is a common snapdragon. Lovely in it’s perfection isn’t it?

I know this Wordless Wednesday post is kind of late. I’ve just been so busy with our new little puppy! Hopefully I’ll get back to blogging on time again soon.
