From the Archives: Flowers in Our Yard
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)
Betsy and I built a new flowerbed in 2009, and since it gets good sunshine, we've planted roses, lilies and daylilies in it. Last year we were pleased with this daylily, South Sea, which gave us many beautiful blossoms, even if each one did last only for a single day.

What a blessing to see Gods beauty- however fleeting.
I could use a set of your green fingers for my garden George, you do a wonderful job. Can't wait for spring.
That is a most beautiful flower. Good work, George!
Beautiful! Now if I keep thinking about this flower,maybe,just maybe,it won't feel so cold outside.

beauty from the archives. i manged to get my archives up on the old drive and am now transferring the ones i love the most.
Even with Daylilies you get several a day.
South Seas is very pretty. MB
wow! you used macro? i never heard of daylilies. can you share you bed of flowers.
Nice to see a punch of color during these days before Spring!
You know from reading my posts that I am a sucker for day lilies. South Seas is a beauty!You put me to shame, George, by knowing the name of each of your flowering plants. I have dozens of different day lilies and remember the names of only a few. That's what I get for not putting permanent markers by the plantings.
Wow that is beautiful and great detail.
Your daylily is very beautiful. Daylilies and roses are such great companions, your bed must look lovely in spring. I hope you will post more pictures of it.
That lily screams Spring!! (anyone can paint a pail)
Mm, very nice that flower.. i really like it :)
This one is pretty, and it actually does make me think of somewhere in the South Pacific.
And that's the ONLY sad thing about day lilies -- that they last only that one day. But they sure are beautiful!
You have a fantastic collection of roses and daylilies!
Wow that is a beautiful lily...and it doesn't have one speck of ice or snow on it :-)
Very Beautiful. It is wearing a crinolin and the color is gorgeous!!
single day for this beautiful flower isn't enough, but the good thing is you captured it's beauty. Fantastic.
Short life but beautiful George.
The heavy snow and extreme cold have me wishing for spring and that's a first for me. I used to love winter but I guess my age is now interfering with my fun spirit?? This picture had my smiling. Thanks for some beauty.
Beautiful George!
I really need to plant some new colors. This one is a lovely color.
You have some of the finest collections of daylilies, vibrant colors, and always a pleasure to enjoy looking at them.
This one is superb !

I will be so glad when we can see new blooms come alive.
That's a beautiful flower!

soon the snow will melt, and you will be busy in the garden?

I love day lilies. They are about maintenance free. Your flowers are always beautiful.

Really beautiful with great tones and colors.
Your lily warms my night. Thank you for this.
