pretty isnt it!
Here's my new lily
Oh my, look at all those spots. That is a very cute lily!
Wow, isn't that neat! :) Does it have a name? (All my lilies have names, they just seem to be wrong most of the time. :) LOL
no name, I call it Johns yellow turkscap, since I got it from my friend John. LOL.
Last fall gave me hundreds of lilies. I find new ones opening every day. What a neat garden surprise! This ones is next to the yellow one.
What a nice friend! I like that last one too.
Theresa, if John gave you hundreds of lilies and if it isn't much trouble for you we would like to see more of them. In fact there is no such thing on this forum of too many lilies!
sure, its raining out so no better time to talk about flowers :) i love the bright sky blue color of the sky in this one.
I dont know if this is some kind of mini, but it sure is tiny. Are there mini oriental lilies?
wanna see daylilies too?
The daylilies are new to me too. My garden friend in IL sent me these. Pretty arent they..
this bright yellow is awesome. I think the name is Electric lady.
this is Triumphator. It has many many blooms coming out from one stem. its awesome.
hey, water lilies should count too huh....
I didnt think I had any yellow lilies, but as time goes by I find I have many. yippee
this starts out as red, then orange appears until its almost all orange. cool huh....
finally, for your viewing enjoyment, my peruvian daffodil, sometimes called peruvian lily.
I want to get one of those peruvians! I think they are so pretty. I like to find things that everyone in the neighborhood doesn't have. Not hard here though. Not many around here plant flowering plants!!
All the photos look great! My Triumphator just opened yesterday!

Theresa,
Your lilies are delightful! How did you get the Puruvian Daffodil to bloom so early? Did you start it indoors?
Those Peruvians have really hardy bulbs. A friend of mine knew I was half-way keeping a watch out for them, and found she had forgotten some stuffed away in the basement. That was June 15. She gave them to me, and boy have they come up robustly!
I started mine in my portable greenhouse around the end of March. This was my first time trying them. They are awesome!!! They smell really good too.
I also have voodoo lilies and dragon lily. Wow, those are neat looking too. I too like the unusual. Some of my more unusual plants for my area are edelweiss, smoke bush, a failed attempt to grow harry lauder from a cutting, boo hoo, curly willow, petasites, ginger.
Happy gardening!
Guess what this flower is???
A purdy veggie?
yup, its a finger eggplant flower. :)
Really! Cool.....
