The Last Ditch.........Lily.


They struggled through the heat and dry soil.  The blooms were less this year than usual but it did give me some very nice blooms.  The ditch lily and all of the trimmings below it, they do tell the story of the kind of summer the plant has had.  The foliage is starting to die down or at least lay flat on the ground bowing to the hot days and warm nights.  It is summer in the heartland.
