77/365: "Beauty is but a flower, which wrinkles will devour." ~ Thomas Nash

77/365: "Beauty is but a flower, which wrinkles will devour." ~ Thomas Nash
This morning I decided to walk along our ridge line to see what flowers are popping up. All over our property, there are different flowers that often only grow in one place, and this flower is one of them! It's called a Henderson's Fawn Lily, and though I have found a few growing in our lower forest, almost all of them grow only along the ridgeline and on our hill! In fact, the first time I saw this flower was last year, and we've lived here for six! It makes me wonder just how many flowers come and go without my ever knowing about them!

Thomas Nash (baptised 20 June 1593 – died 4 April 1647) was the first husband of William Shakespeare's granddaughter Elizabeth Barnard. He lived most of his life in Stratford-upon-Avon, and was the dominant male figure amongst Shakespeare's senior family line after the death of Dr. John Hall, Shakespeare's son-in-law, in 1635.
