Oops, just spend the better part of one hour to show you my jewels of the garden when I hit (I assure you purely by accicent) the Backspace button. GONE ! :hit

Being the person I am I will try again:

My favorite Lily the Oriental "Nippon", like it for it's delicate appearance. The red blooms in foreground are Crocosmia's.

Like this piccie of the "Boogie Woogie". You can't often catch the light cream/yellow coloration of the bloom.

Beautiful lilies Rugosa! Man, you have a lot! :)
Love crocosmia too, I've tried it here but the winters are too hard on it and it rarely survives more than a year or two.

Such amazingly beautiful lilies you have Rugosa!!
I bet it just smells like heaven with them all. I especially love the variety Muscadet, I must add this one in my collection of lilies.

Thanks for the pictures! :thumbsup

Just lovely! I am so happy I added lilies to my garden. The perfume they scent the air with- is just heavenly. I think they must have enjoyed the cool, wet spring. My tree lilies were over my head! They put on quite a show. Enjoy your lovelies!
