Lilies

It has been a good spring here for flowers after a long, snowy and cold winter. The lilies are particularly pretty this year so you will have to deal with a few more flowers pictures. The first one is a wild tiger lily that is a volunteer.


The second two are from a plant that i purchased last year at the end of the season in a discount section at a local garden store. I stuck the bulbs in the ground and I never expected that they would survive the winter. There are three stalks with multiple blooms. Of course I can't locate the tag that came with them to identify the variety, but they are obviously healthy.


The final one is a potted rain lily that came from my grandmother many years ago and keeps blooming every year.  It winters inside in a dark place and gets taken back outside every spring.
