Have a view of my daily photos or photos from my past. We all need to document the world around us visually. What I see is mostly what you get.

New Bloom........
I have been watching three different stalks that had very large buds on them. I didn't remember what they were as I think they were planted two years ago. I had a bad year for lilies last years and a lot of them were trying to bloom during a hot dry spell and the buds shriveled up rather than open. To my surprise they were as big as a regal lily and they have a light smell of a stargazer. The color is wonderful. I took this photo as the sun was going down so I could get better color in the shot.
It is such a delicate looking color and the size is great. It was a surprise to see color as the buds were pure white as if they were going to be a white regale lily. The two stalks were planted together and why the crazy gardener planted on in another area is beyond my understanding. I must have thought I should scatter the color.
