Here's another one of those flowers that I didn't post last year because of my 10 day trip to Alberta.

Tall spotted yellow lilies. Bought about a half dozen of these plants for a mere dollar a piece about 5 years ago. Now I must have near 2 dozen mature plants. This is one bed that about to get torn down.

New plants for this year. Bryan bought em and planted em near where I go out to read in the morning & at sunset. Rather pleasant scent waffs from them to my nostrils (when I'm not too affected by my allergies)

Or when it's not raining.

We've had record rainfalls this summer. Breaking records for each summer month. Already broken the total rainfall for the summer and there's still another month of summer left.
