I am glad that you enjoyed the photo. The asiatic lily may be "Tiger Rose", although I could not swear about it. The poppies are oriental but I do not know their name. Years ago, I did not keep notes as I do now. This flower bed in under Locust trees, they get morning sun and lots of filtered sun later in the day. The soil is sandy which I mulch with bark. It is a easy combination to care for.
