Déjà vu ...

Déjà vu ...
2 June 2016 ..
2 June 2017 ..


Winsome Lady became either the 1st DayLily to visit
Or
The 2nd ..
All depends on viewpoints ..

There are all sorts of criteria that a Day Lily must meet ..
Per those souls who take this very seriously ..
You know -- the Chapters / the Groups / the people who live and breathe the 'background' ..
Hybrids
Fulver ..
Yes- it gets very confusing ..
In my World, if it looks like a Day Lily ..
It is a Day Lily ..
(though I was told / informed by some group that is very serious) ..

The orange Day Lily ( that I've taken bunches of photo of) ..
''They do not meet the standards of a 'true Day Lily' " ..

They are also called Ditch Lily ..
Personally, I don't care ..

But,when I told 'them that', they were not amused ..

Oh, well ... that is Life..

Our Garden of Surprises ( if you don't know why I call it that ) ..
We moved back to North Carolina after many years living in Florida ..
N.C. is home ....
Even though the home we bought had manuals of all that had been done (even blueprints) over the years ..
Not one thing about the Garden ..
So, for the 1st year I photo-documented everything ... weeds and all ..
From then on, I have enjoyed 'playing in the dirt' ..
And I love to name plants .. oh do I ever !

Some people are so sour they burn themselves Peggy my dear SAB

Those people will melt in their own sourness and miss all sorts of beauties.

LOVE the Lilies !!!

I've heard this term "ditch lily". But they grow, they bloom, and they're beautiful, all without any human's help. This seems like a good deal. I have many of them here - and more each year.

Day Lilly or Ditch lilly no problem, you have beautiful lillies on the frame, and you capture very well with intense highlights. Technically i underexpose a little or edit the hghlights in PS. Instead the name, you have a nice shot of this lillies
