Oh, To Be in England…
Oh wait, I am in England! This is a dream of a lifetime trip for me. I had hoped to blog along during my trip but I can’t upload photos for some reason (I am only using my phone). I am posting daily on Instagram of the lovely places I am seeing. My Instagram ID is phillipoliver if you want to follow me. Cheerio!
Philip... you're singing my song!! beautiful... not familiar with the flies however and hope it stays that way!! Larry
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! My Tigers have just opened. More rain needed here.
ReplyDeleteHi Phillip, spectacular they are indeed! I have no lilies in my garden yet, but your post really makes me want to plant some :-)! I wonder how they will be doing in our dry summer heat.

Beautiful! Love them! Those white flies are on my limelight hydrangea. Hate them too. Spraying doesn't seem to help much.
ReplyDeleteYour lilies are superb! My crop of whiteflies are the horrible this year. I have been spraying them with an eco-friendly summer oil, and that has helped a lot. But just about when I think I have them truly conquered, I find them in another shrub.
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait for my tiger lilies and "Scheherazade" to bloom...gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteFor the past few years I have admired lilies in other people's gardens and yours are beautiful. I resolved to add some in my own this year. I wanted something orange and tall to rise over my other plants, particularly over my Black and Blue Salvia. I found some at a flower show that were supposed to be 48" tall, but when they bloomed they looked more like little florist lilies, and if it is even possible, they were too orange, even for me.
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous lilies, especially that Tiger Lily. I'm a big fan of them too and am looking to add more to my garden for next year.
ReplyDeleteSimply stunning! So very beautiful, Phillip! You've got me yearning for a flower-bed filled with the most spectacular lilies now.
