I love Day Lillies they bring so much colour to the garden. They also are hard working plants that are cheerful and prolific. I have tried to collect a few different colours and I have found that the 2nd and 3rd years have been the best. They then begin to spread and for me thats a plus.
This pink beauty is 3 years old now and has doubled in size. This is a single bloom but the plant is really blooming this year.
Yellow is always a good choice
Orange is the work horse of the day lily
I love the dark colours
This is a pretty one
more pink beauties, I will have to look up all the names.
Some of the deep reds are hard to capture the correct shades
William Blakes poem "The Lily"
The modest Rose puts forth a thorn,
The humble sheep a threat'ning horn:
While the Lily white shall in love delight,
Nor a thorn nor a threat stain her beauty bright.
Common Daylilies
This is a lovely deep burgundy red,
This blog is about my garden and the outdoors. I am new to photography but I am trying to show some of the pretty things that grow here in Michigan. I love the wild things who visit me and I dont mind if they eat a bit here and there. I like it more if they let me take their picture. As time goes on I think I will try to show you around the beautiful area that I live in as well as my garden. I try to use my own pictures as much as possible but will also use pictures from the web. If I inadvertently use your photo or work without permission please email me and I will remove it or give credit if you prefer. I will give credit when I know who the owner is. I would ask that anyone using my pictures do the same.
