Pink Oriental Lilies

These oriental lily photos are obviously from earlier in the year. I do still have some daylilies blooming (very few) but no oriental lilies left. This first one is called Oriental X-otica, you can see the coloring of my daylilies in the background. The X-otica is planted in the edge of my largest daylily flowerbed.

You know me, I have to get closer and closer.

Although they all look like the same lily to me, the last one is Pink Pearl, the oriental I posted early July, here. The Pink Pearls are planted up close to the house, you can see the brick in the background.

Just taking a little time to blog. I am going to try to visit some too.

Lilies in my yard

Several years ago a friend and I went together and bought lilies from Breck's and we split the cost. The Pink Pearl Oriental Lily is one of the lilies BJ and I bought together. We bought Asiatic and Oriental lilies. Over the years I have learned the orientals bloom later than the asiatic lilies.

My orientals are beginning to bloom, you know me, I have to get up close.

Isn't it beautiful and amazing when you look closer?

My Calla Lilies bloomed a month or so ago. Now they have started their rebloom. Sometimes flowers do funny things on the rebloom. This Calla Lily decided to split. I gave some of these to Teresa last year, and her rebloom is doing the same thing.

Been busy, and not been blogging. Can't promise to blog more, but as time permits I will. Have a photography assignment job tomorrow morning, before going to my 'real' job. I have also been taking some knitting classes. I have knitted for over 40 years, but I am trying to branch out some with my knitting.
