Are you tired of seeing the Day Lilies and Lilies in our yard???? I hope not---because here comes another post!!!!!! Even though we were gone for 3 weeks in June, we have been fortunate to have so many different Lilies and Day Lilies blooming off and on for these past couple of months. Altogether, we have had 20 different varieties of Lilies and 19 different varieties of Day Lilies. AND--that doesn't count the ones we totally missed seeing in June. SO---we can't complain!!! They have been so pretty --and many still are!!!!
Today I will show you some of each... IF you missed any of my other posts, you can go to the sidebar and scroll down to labels. Then click on either DayLilies 2011 or Lilies 2011. Above is a picture of another of our Day Lilies. It's name is appropriately, BICOLOR DAY LILY.
CAROLYN CRISWELL DAY LILY (I love this yellow color.)
SPANISH GLOW DAY LILY (This one didn't bloom last year ---so we'll say that this is a new one for us!!!)
This one is named MERO STAR LILY. Isn't it a gorgeous lily?
And this little yellow beauty is named TREBBIANO LILY.
And I think this has been one of my favorite lilies this year. Its name is SIMPLON LILY. Doesn't it remind you of old-fashioned fabric called Dotted Swiss??? Or --maybe it's like tapioca pudding....
Finally, here's the reason I love the SIMPLON LILIES so much... There are so many of them --and they are truly gorgeous!!
This is probably the last of my lily and day lily posts for this year... IF you don't have them in your yard, then you need to get some... They are such a joy to have around.
Hugs,
P.S. Many of you talked about the sad faces in yesterday's pictures. If you remember, it took a very very long time back then to take photographs.. It was not a fast project. People couldn't have held a smile for that long---so that is why people in old pictures never smiled. I also read that people didn't have good teeth back then either---so that is another reason for no smiles much. BUT---I truly feel as if my family had many happy times and were never as sad as they looked in photos.
