Still got a couple more to open that will be different colours, but here are some of them in my garden this year.

Thank you Dulc, glad you liked them.

Lovely coloured Lillies Pauline, we just have two plants red and yellow but the red one flowered a couple of weeks ago and now seems to be dying off, it hasnt lasted long at all.

Beautiful photo's Pauline, you still have those magical Green fingers.

Thank you Alan and Blot - good to see you posting Blot.

Alan - no they don't last long, but the more established they get, then you do seem to get more buds on the flower heads and they don't open all at once. Trouble with mine is that they make a lovely splash of colour in a darker part of the garden where there are a lot of shrubs and once gone it is now looking all shades of green again - got to work on that problem and see what I can also put in that border for continuous colour.

The first Day Lily has opened this morning and as its name implies, it does only bloom for the day and then the next bud opens. Ok if you have a large clump of these, but mine is only small at the moment.

Oh my gosh Pauline...if my gardens were full of your beautiful flowers I would never want to come inside!! This one is very very very pretty!!!!

Now that's the trouble Dulc, could spend loads of time out there finding things to do, but today got a new pc installed and there will be times when I am off line, while I am getting everything installed on that and also facing loads of decorating on which there is a time limit because of new carpet arriving. Upstairs and downstairs halls to do and the staircase - all walls, ceilings and woodwork and that involves 9 doors . Afraid the decorating is more important at the moment and will try and work on pc in the evenings and got to limit myself to just an hour a day in the garden. Not looking forward to any of it.

We will miss seeing u say hello with your Photos..but please take some more of those beautiful pictures of those lilies!!..Are they all the same colors??I have the orange ones but yours are much prettier!!

Chickadee - That Day Lily opens one bloom on each flower stem per day and then dies and the next day a new one will open, but they are all that pattern on mine. There are a few variation in the markings from plant to plant, but all basically the same.

While I have been busy decorating I have still been keeping a watch on the lilies and this is the latest one that has opened, which is the lightest pink one I have.

The last of my lilies have now opened and these are the Stargazer

Wow those are just beautiful!!!You have a lovely garden thank you for sharing.
emma

Thanks Emma and Cannuckguy. Just got home from a few days in the Cotswolds and the last petals are dropping now, just the Day Lily with a few buds to open and another year to wait for that glorious splash of colour.
