« Part 2: Daylily assortment Part 3 of My Macro Shots series no next part

Here are a few more flowers in my garden right now.


An anual I planted from seed in the memorial garden, not sure what it is.


A bulb from a mixture I had bought at Veseys, again not sure what it is but it grows well in the shaded garden in front of the girls coop.


Lily boardering the front lawn along side the daylilies.


Zuchini flower hiding in the backyard.


Sunflower growing in the strawberry barrels along side the garage door.

BEAUTIFUL tribute to Dolly XO … I know you loved her and miss her.

How is your Memorial Garden coming? What did you plant there this year? Obviously the white/burgundy Lily. I would love to see a pic of it now … the other photos you had posted came across as such a serene place.

Really loved your pics—-very creative. I believe the second picture is a crocosmia. I have some of these although they did not flower this year—too much rain, I think.

Yes I am sure you are right Iris!!! I just looked them up at Veseys and although mine are much more red than those they pictured, it fits the description perfectly. And thanks Bon, I just tossed some anual seeds around sou I was not sure what the orange one was but it is very nice and bright, I may have to plant them again now.
