This gorgeous day lily is called Moonlit Snow. Larry gave me this plant for Mother’s Day about eleventy bazillion years ago. Ok, more than ten years, anyway. I planted it right out front, and it has propagated and grown into a healthy lily that produces these enormous blooms. Today, there are about a dozen greeting our guests. Sigh! Lilies make me smile.
Spring has arrived – just look at the beautiful flowers! All that work last fall sure paid off. Here are the drama queens, the double Tahiti daffodils…
And they are right at home with the single white daffodils with the orange ruffle, called Gentle Giants, the big fat double yellow Sherborns which have reached an impressive five-inches across, and the utterly charming white Mint Juleps (single white daffodil with the small yellow cup and green heart). The scent of the hyacinth? Divine!
The flower girls today were daughters of the bride and groom. He came all the way from Sarasota, she came all the way from Thailand! The two daughters are the same age and were just exquisite little wood sprites that decorated the garden. They danced from flower to flower like butterflies! It was beautiful to watch.
